What causes a missed miscarriage?

Patient's question:

My wife was pregnant for the first time. At 6 weeks of pregnancy, she discovered the fetal heartbeat, but after 8 weeks, the pregnancy stopped. The doctor said it might be a problem with my sperm. I had my sperm tested, and everything was normal. My wife has been heartbroken for over a month. What could have caused the miscarriage?

Doctor's answer:

The reasons for miscarriage are actually quite numerous. For example, if a virus or bacteria is contracted in the early stages of pregnancy, or if there are issues with the fertilized egg's growth and development, hormonal imbalances in women, abnormal thyroid function, mycoplasma or chlamydia infections, or abnormal chromosomes can all lead to early miscarriage. Additionally, medication use in the early stages of pregnancy can also cause recurrent miscarriage. It is recommended to seek treatment at a regular hospital.
