What is it?

Recurrent pregnancy loss is defined as having two or more miscarriages. Most pregnancy losses result from chromosomal or genetic abnormalities. Other causes for pregnancy loss may include uterine abnormalities, hormone abnormalities such as thyroid disease and diabetes, and abnormalities in the mother’s blood clotting. Women who have had recurrent pregnancy loss will go through testing to find the underlying cause. In most cases, no abnormality will be found and the change for a successful pregnancy is high.
