Patient's question:
Why are there two missed miscarriages within a year? What tests should I do and what should I pay attention to if I want to have children in the future?Doctor's answer:
Habitual abortion refers to the occurrence of three or more consecutive natural miscarriages. In recent years, recurrent abortion has replaced habitual abortion, referring to two or more natural miscarriages. Therefore, your condition falls under habitual abortion.Guidance: The factors or causes of habitual abortion are mostly due to luteal function insufficiency in pregnant women, hypothyroidism, congenital uterine malformations, uterine developmental abnormalities, intrauterine adhesions, uterine fibroids, chromosomal abnormalities, and autoimmune conditions. Habitual abortion
Habitual late miscarriage is often caused by cervical incompetence. It is usually due to cervical damage from procedures such as curettage or cervical dilation, though it may occasionally be due to congenital developmental abnormalities. In such cases, after the mid-pregnancy stage, as amniotic fluid increases and the fetus grows, intrauterine pressure rises, and the fetal sac may protrude from the cervical os. When intrauterine pressure reaches a certain level, the membranes may rupture, leading to miscarriage, often without any noticeable symptoms beforehand. Therefore, it is recommended that you undergo a thorough examination at the hospital.
