187. Recurrent miscarriage
Summary
Recurrent miscarriage is where you persistently get pregnant and unfortunately have a miscarriage. The majority of miscarriages are going to be due to nature's mistakes. In other words, the embryo that was created when the sperm and the egg came together was actually genetically abnormal. The research is pretty clear that somewhere between 50 and 70 percent of miscarriages that get beyond six weeks of pregnancy are caused by genetic abnormalities in the embryo. And it's basically nature stopping them, those chromosomal abnormalities caused predominantly by the eggs. In this episode, Prof talks about how he tests the genetic makeup of both partners to ensure no aberrations or other issues that could affect the pregnancy. He also talks about scarring of the uterus and its correlation with higher miscarriage rates. Tune to learn more. Know someone who might find this content useful? Please do share it with them.
