Pregnancy and miscarriage..3
Posted in 2015

A miscarriage is the loss of a baby before the 20th week of pregnancy.
According to the March of Dimes, as many as 50% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage -- most often before a woman misses a menstrual period or even knows she is pregnant. About 15% of recognized pregnancies will end in a miscarriage.
More than 80% of miscarriages occur within the first three months of pregnancy. They are less likely to occur after 20 weeks' gestation; if they do, they are called late miscarriages.
What Are the Symptoms of Miscarriage?
Symptoms of a miscarriage include:
Bleeding that progresses from light to heavy
Cramps
Abdominal pain
Fever
Passing of tissue
If you're pregnant and experience the symptoms listed above, contact your obstetric health care provider right away. He or she will tell you to come in to the office or go to the emergency room.

What Causes Miscarriage?
The medical term for a miscarriage is spontaneous abortion, but the condition is not an abortion in the common definition of that term.
The causes of miscarriage are not well understood. Most of the miscarriages that occur in the first trimester of pregnancy are caused by chromosomal abnormalities in the baby. Chromosomes are tiny structures inside the cells of the body which carry many genes. Genes determine all of a person's physical attributes, such as sex, hair and eye color, and blood type. Most chromosomal problems occur by chance and are not related to the mother's or father's health.
Miscarriages are also caused by a variety of other factors, including:
Infection
Exposure to environmental and workplace hazards, such as high levels of radiation or toxic agents
Hormonal problems
Uterine abnormalities
Incompetent cervix (the cervix begins to widen and open too early, in the middle of pregnancy, without signs of pain or labor)
Lifestyle factors, such as smoking, drinking alcohol, or using illegal drugs
Disorders of the immune system, including lupus
Severe kidney disease
Congenital heart disease
Diabetes that is not controlled
Thyroid disease
Radiation
Certain medications, such as the acne drug Accutane
Severe malnutrition
In addition, women may be at increased risk for miscarriage as they age. Studies show that the risk of miscarriage is 12% to 15% for women in their 20s, and rises to about 25% for women at age 40. The increased incidence of chromosomal abnormalities contributes to the age-related risk of miscarriage.

How Is a Miscarriage Diagnosed and Treated?
Your health care provider will perform a pelvic exam and an ultrasound test to confirm the miscarriage. If the miscarriage is complete and the uterus is clear, then no further treatment is usually required. Occasionally, the uterus is not completely emptied, so a dilation and curettage (D&C) procedure is performed. During this procedure, the cervix is dilated and any remaining fetal or placental tissue is gently removed from the uterus. As an alternative to a D&C, certain medications can be given to cause your body to expel the contents in the uterus. This option may be more ideal in someone who wants to avoid surgery and whose condition is otherwise stable.
If a miscarriage was not confirmed, but you had symptoms of a miscarriage, bed rest is often prescribed for several days, and you may be admitted to the hospital overnight for observation. Blood work to determine the amount of a pregnancy hormone (hCG) may be performed to monitor the pregnancy. When the bleeding stops, usually you will be able to continue with your normal activities. If the cervix is dilated, you may be diagnosed with an incompetent cervix and a procedure to close the cervix (called cerclage) may be performed. If your blood type is Rh negative and your partner is Rh positive, your doctor may give you a blood product called Rh immune globulin (Rhogam). This prevents you from developing antibodies that could harm your baby now or in future pregnancies.
I am explaining U the causes of Miscarriage. It is painful to the Couple and I wish that this should not be happened. If you take proper health care in Healthy food, Healthy life style etc...Every couple can avoid it and give birth to Healthy child I wish it
