Patient's question:
Previously, the first pregnancy resulted in a miscarriage (), and the child was lost. This time, I am pregnant with the second child and am a bit worried that this situation might occur again. Does a previous miscarriage affect subsequent pregnancies?Doctor's answer:
Women who have experienced fetal growth and development to stop and then conceive a second baby have a higher risk of miscarriage compared to the general population, but it also depends on the specific cause of the first miscarriage. Some pregnant women have insufficient progesterone from the beginning, which is not enough to maintain the normal growth and development of the fetus, so they may experience another miscarriage. It is recommended to dynamically and carefully observe the growth and development of the fetus, increase the frequency of prenatal examinations, and take folic acid tablets at the same time.
