Could Too Much Coral Calcium Cause Misscarriage? Posted: 10-07-07 11:06am
I am 44 and i was 11 weeks pregnant and
lost my baby one week ago. I visited
vitamin world looking for specific
vitamins for our pregnancy (as i have
always been a big vitamin taker,
throughout my last pregnancy too), and it
was suggested i take a coral calcium
supplement (1500 mg/daily intake
requirement, in one capsule) since i do
not drink milk on a regular basis. Within
3 weeks, i began spotting and then
misscarried. Looking back, it seemed as
soon as i took my vitamins, i would begin
cramping, and the spotting would increase.
I have three healthy children ages 25, 20
and 6. My doctor said i am not too old to
carry a child, as my health is excellent
and he gave no reason not to try again.

Your doctor should give you some idea why
you may have miscarried. Usually in early
pregnancy it is due to chromosomal
abnormalities in the zygote and nothing
you could have done to prevent it.
