What are the reasons for habitual abortion?

Patient's question:

How can I maintain it so that I don't miscarry anymore? I've been pregnant twice, and unfortunately, both times I miscarried. I'm asking what are the causes of habitual abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Many women suffer from habitual abortion, which causes great harm to both their physical and mental health. What are the reasons for habitual abortion? Below, the author will introduce the causes of habitual abortion.
The reasons for habitual abortion are numerous and relatively complex, mainly including the following aspects:
Endocrine dysfunction
Fertilized eggs can only implant and develop into fetuses on the uterine wall under the action of progesterone. When progesterone secretion is insufficient in the body, the endometrium develops poorly, which affects the development of the fertilized egg and easily leads to abortion. If prostaglandin increases, it can cause frequent contractions of the uterine muscles, also leading to abortion. Hypothyroidism can impair cellular oxidative capacity, thereby affecting the growth and development of the embryo and causing abortion.
Embryonic development defects
Abnormal fertilized eggs are the main cause of early abortion. In the first two months of pregnancy, about 80% of miscarriages are due to defects in sperm or eggs, which cause the embryo to stop developing to a certain extent. Therefore, in the expelled tissue of such abortions, the original embryonic tissue is not observed.
Reproductive organ diseases
Uterine malformations, such as bicornuate uterus, septate uterus, and uterine underdevelopment. Pelvic tumors, especially submucosal myomas, can all affect fetal growth and development, leading to abortion. Uterine cervical relaxation or deep lacerations of the cervix can cause premature rupture of membranes and lead to late-term abortion.
