If you have suffered a miscarriage, we would first like to say that we are truly sorry. The loss of a pregnancy is one of the most emotionally devastating things to happen to a person or couple. And with that being said, we’d again like to point out that this information can be very upsetting and even triggering for some. While many find it helpful to read up on these things, this isn’t true for everyone. So don’t feel that you must continue reading if you are struggling.

Hopefully, you will find some reassurance in learning that the chances of a successful pregnancy next time are much higher than those of another miscarriage. In most cases, the cause of the initial miscarriage will have been random, a result of chromosomal abnormalities or an infection, and is therefore unlikely to happen again.

What are the facts surrounding further miscarriages?

When it comes to facts and figures, there are trials and studies that suggest contradictory data. However, the most recent information from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and NHS websites say that recurrent miscarriage affects 1 in 100 (1%) women.

Each and every woman is different, as is every pregnancy. The best thing you can do is speak to your doctor and try to acquire as much evidence-based information as possible.

Again, we’d like to reassure you that the chances of another miscarriage are significantly lower than those of a successful pregnancy.
