Risk factors for another miscarriage will
depend upon the original factors that
provoked the first miscarriage. If those
factors are still present, there is a big
risk for another miscarriage. Reasons for
miscarriage vary:
1. Congenital aberrations (chromosome and
genetic) ;
2. Viral infections;
3. Exposure to radioactive irradiation;
4. Chemicals (including medicines);
5. Endocrine disorders (diabetes,
hyperthyroidism…);
6. Uterine disorders (malformations,
myoma, endometrial adhesions due to trauma
or infection);
7. Placenta disorders (abruption, placenta
previa);
8. Infections of the vagina and cervix
that spread to the chorion;
9. Polyhydroamnion (increased amount of
amnial liquid);
10. Kidneys’ disease,
11. Cervical failure, and
12. Unknown reasons.
You can consult your obstetrician about
all these factors and to discuss possible
risks.
