What Is Recurrent Pregnancy Loss And How Is It Diagnosed?

Recurrent Pregnancy Loss is defined as consecutive miscarriages, 2 or more, prior to the 20 weeks of gestation. If you are thinking, “Why does this keep happening to me?”. It is totally understandable to question things; you have questions, and those questions can be answered, small or big. So, put your feet up, as we discuss the causes of recurrent pregnancy loss, the ways to diagnose them, to see if treatment options may be available.

What Causes Recurrent Pregnancy Loss?

There are many reasons why someone could have a number of pregnancy losses. There are genetic reasons, hormonal reasons, and structural reasons in the uterus. There could also be instances when the body’s immune system might be involved. The immune system can sometimes perceive the pregnancy as a threat and can bring on issues. If you have experienced recurrent pregnancy loss, take the time to work with a fertility specialist and get to the bottom of what is happening. In some cases, the solution may be in female infertility treatment.

How Do Doctors Diagnose Recurrent Pregnancy Loss?

In diagnosing recurrent pregnancy loss, the first step doctors take is starting a work-up with a variety of tests. The tests help identify what might be responsible for the issue so that the results may contribute to a viable treatment plan. Some of the common test could involve:

• Genetic Testing: Identifies whether an underlying chromosomal issue may be impacting the ability to have a term, live birth.

• Hormonal Tests:  Disorders or imbalances such as a low thyroid level, or a low progesterone level can heighten the risk of miscarriage.

• Anatomical Testing: Usually involves imaging studies designed to detect deformities within the uterus, such as fibroids or abnormalities, that may prevent a successful pregnancy.

• Immunological Testing:  If your immune system is somehow attacking the pregnancy, then it may result in miscarriage. This is where reproductive immunology comes in as it looks at the impact of the immune system.

The Role Of Reproductive Immunology In Pregnancy Loss

In some instances, your immune system might be the reason behind frequent miscarriages. This situation is an immune-related pregnancy issue. Essentially, your body can take the pregnancy as a foreign entity and it may be treating it as such, trying to treat it as an invader. It can result in failed pregnancy or pregnancy loss. This is where reproductive immunology comes in. It assesses where the immune system is getting involved with the pregnancy and it provides the doctor how to solve the issue.

If you have had multiple miscarriages or unsuccessful IVF cycles, it is important to explore reproductive immunology. Dr. Mohan Raut and Dr. Mugdha Raut are experts in this field and can help you navigate the process.
