Patient's question:
I had a child this year who died in the womb due to hydrocephalus. Could you please tell me what tests I should undergo, what the actual cause is, how long I should wait before trying for another child, and whether it's still possible to have a healthy child? Thank youDoctor's answer:
Hello, the development of the fetus each time is different. However, if it is not normal for you to be pregnant again, it should be given high attention. In this case, it is recommended that both partners go to the hospital for routine pre-pregnancy checks in a timely manner. If everything is normal, there is no need to worry. If there are any issues affecting pregnancy, it is better to address them promptly. Theoretically, the return to a normal menstrual cycle with normal flow indicates that the endometrium has already healed, and it is possible to get pregnant again. However, considering the adverse effects of miscarriage on physical and mental health, it is recommended to wait for 3 to 6 months before planning to get pregnant again.
