Patient's question:
Hello! I have had two natural miscarriages, and now I want to take preventive measures to have a normal pregnancy next time and avoid another miscarriage. Do I need to take any medication?Doctor's answer:
This habitual abortion should be primarily prevented. Before delivery, both the male and female partners should undergo thorough examinations at the hospital, including genital examinations and necessary laboratory tests. If possible, chromosomal examinations can be conducted. If the cause can be identified, targeted treatment should be administered. For those who are already pregnant early, different methods to stabilize the pregnancy should be followed according to the doctor's guidance, addressing the underlying cause.Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that this condition is often due to insufficient kidney Qi and weak (the collaterals of the uterus and the conception channel), and it is advisable to tonify the kidneys and spleen, strengthen Qi, nourish blood, and treat the condition before pregnancy. Specific herbal formulas such as Bu Shen Gu Chong Wan (Renew Kidney and Consolidate Chong Meridian) can be used.
For habitual abortion in the late stage of pregnancy caused by cervical insufficiency, cervical cerclage surgery is generally performed between the 16th and 22nd weeks of early pregnancy to maintain the pregnancy until the later stages or even full term.
