Is fetal heartbeat followed by fetal demise due to maternal reasons?

Patient's question:

I have been trying to conceive with my partner for a year. Finally, I got pregnant, and now, after a lot of effort, the baby has a heartbeat. When I went to the hospital for a follow-up check, the doctor said it had stopped developing. Is it a maternal reason for the heartbeat to stop after it appears?

Doctor's answer:

According to your situation, after the fetal heartbeat appeared, there was a miscarriage, the most common main reason is that the female progesterone is too low, leading to fetal demise. Low progesterone is related to the mother's body and has something to do with luteal function insufficiency. Before getting pregnant again, you must have a comprehensive pre-natal health check-up to ensure that it will not happen again. Both husband and wife must cooperate actively.
