Why does a missed miscarriage not respond?

Patient's question:

Last month passed for seven or eight days without coming. Later, after a careful check, I found out I was pregnant. At that time, both my husband and I were very happy. This month, when I went for a prenatal check-up, the doctor said the fetus had stopped developing. How come the miscarriage didn't show up?

Doctor's answer:

If the fetal demise is caused by the cessation of fetal heart development and growth, the pregnant woman will not feel it. If the fetal demise is due to insufficient corpus luteum or low progesterone levels, there may be symptoms of vaginal bleeding. Fetal demise poses significant harm to a woman's body, so if it occurs again, it is recommended to identify the cause promptly to prevent recurrence. Additionally, attention should be paid to dietary habits, preferably maintaining a light and balanced diet.
