Patient's question:
Previously, at 7 months of pregnancy, I underwent a miscarriage due to a baby having polydactyly. How long should I wait before trying for another baby? If I get pregnant again 2 months after the miscarriage, will it have any impact? The help I am seeking: What are the potential effects of getting pregnant again after a previous miscarriage?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, it is generally best to wait a year before getting pregnant again after a miscarriage, so that the uterus can fully recover. Then, getting pregnant again will cause no interference. You cannot have sexual intercourse within one month after a miscarriage. Wait until your menstrual cycle returns to normal before resuming sexual activity, but be careful to continue breastfeeding. If you really do get pregnant again, it will cause even more harm to the uterus, so you might consider keeping this child. Wishing you good luck and good health.
