Signs of miscarriage
The signs of a miscarriage vary, depending on your stage of pregnancy. In some cases, it happens so quickly that you may not even know you’re pregnant before you miscarry.
Here are some of the symptoms of a miscarriage, according to a Healthline report.
- Heavy spotting
- Vaginal bleeding
- discharge of tissue or fluid from your vagina
- Severe abdominal pain or cramping
- Mild to severe back pain
Miscarriage causes
While there are some things that increase the risk of miscarriage, generally it isn’t a result of something that you did or didn’t do. If you’re having difficulty maintaining pregnancy, your doctor may check for some known causes of miscarriage, as per a WebMd report.
During pregnancy, your body supplies hormones and nutrients to your developing fetus. This helps your fetus grow. Most first trimester miscarriages happen because the fetus doesn’t develop normally. There are different factors that can cause this.
Miscarriage risks
Most miscarriages are due to natural and unpreventable causes. However, certain risk factors can increase your chances of having a miscarriage. These include body trauma, exposure to harmful chemicals or radiation, drug use, alcohol abuse, and smoking.
Prevention of miscarriage
Most miscarriages happen because there’s a problem with the pregnancy. You can’t prevent them. If your doctor does tests and finds a problem, treatment options may be available.
If you have an illness, treating it can improve your chances of a successful pregnancy. One step you can take is to get as healthy as you can before you try to have a child through regular exercise, well-balanced diet, reduce caffeine intake, and stop smoking, drinking alcohol, or takin illicit drugs.
