  • Experiencing a miscarriage can be heartbreaking and confusing. Whether it’s your first or you've suffered more than one, you are not alone—and there ishelp available.


  • Miscarriage is more common than many realise, affecting 1 in 5 pregnancies. It may occur for a range of reasons, including:

    •  Chromosomal abnormalities in the embryo – often due to chance or maternal age

    • Hormonal imbalances– including thyroid disorders or conditions like PCOS

    • Uterine factors– infections, inflammation, scarring, or structural issues

    • Unexplained– sometimes, no cause is found despite testing


  • Maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding smoking and excess alcohol, and managing chronic conditions can help reduce your risk.

What Is Recurrent Miscarriage?

Recurrent miscarriageis defined as two or more consecutive pregnancy losses, usually in the first trimester. It’s less common, but deserves thorough investigation and support.

You should see a doctor if:

  • You’ve had two or more miscarriages

  • You’re concerned about your risk due to medical history, age, or symptoms

  • You've experienced a second-trimester loss(after 12 weeks but before 24 weeks), which could suggest a different cause—such as cervical insufficiency

  • Clotting tests(thrombophilia screen)
