Miscarriages

Miscarriage is the spontaneous loss of a pregnancy before the 20th week. About 10 to 20 percent of known pregnancies end in miscarriage. But the actual number is likely higher because many miscarriages occur very early in pregnancy — before you might even know about a pregnancy

Tests

• A karyotyping blood test for both the parents to see if  either of you carries a balanced translocation-an altered chromosome arrangement, which may be the cause of the miscarriage.
• A blood test for antiphospholipid antibodies(antibodies that attack a women's own tissues causing blood clots that can clog the maternal blood vessels that feeds the placenta)
• An ultrasound before pregnancy where saline is infused into the uterus to check for anatomical problems.
• An analysis of the chromosomal makeup of the miscarried embryo or fetus, which can help determine a cause for the miscarriage.
• Test for vitamin deficiencies.
• Test for hormones levels.

-A patient with a history of early or late miscarriages can benefit from hormone therapy. Progesteron for women who appear to be producing too little of this important pregnancy hormone 

-or a medication to reduce levels of the hormone prolactin in the mother's blood if test shows that  excess prolactin is the cause.

- If a thyroid problem is detected, it can be treated easily.

- Yoga, meditatio, visualization technique and deep breathing can help with the anxiety.

- Communicating your feelings openly with your partners may also help. Remember you are in this together.

- So first of all relax.

- Eating as well as you can.
