What could cause a miscarriage in a woman who’s had three successful previous pregnancies?

Q: I am wondering what could cause a woman who is under 30 years old and with three perfect previous pregnancies to suddenly have 2 miscarriages one after another? She does not smoke, eats healthy, and drinks only in moderation. She has no diseases or health conditions. She is at a healthy weight also. I cannot think why this would happen, can you list to me the most possible reasons you can think of please? Thank you so much

A: Virtually anything can cause it. According to one very large study, 40% of miscarriages are caused by genetic malformations. Just because this women is under 30 and didn’t have the problem before doesn’t mean that this doesn’t happen. Happens often. No matter what, you are older. You can’t avoid it. Consider asking the doctor whether she is a candidate for aspirin therapy (81 mg.day). It’s been shown to decrease miscarriage in women who have problems with clotting forming behind placenta. At least one poster at Yahoo!Answers could not carry a pregnancy without it and she was under 25.

What things cause you to have a miscarriage?

Q: I’m doing a school assignment (I’m not pregnant) on how women have miscarriages for my Child Studies Class.I heard while early pregnant drinking lots of caffeine can cause a miscarriage and also falling over (injuring yourself) is that true? I know the injuring yourself in more longer pregnancy you can loose the baby but if your only afew weeks would that cause a miscarriage?What other stuff would cause one? Not changing your diet and still constantly eating junk food? Tell me everything you know about how miscarriages are caused?Thankyou.

A: The #1 reason for miscarriage is massive chromosomal abnormalities, not outside issues.Other reasons that are not verifiable are caffeine use, fibriods, advanced maternal age (again that can go back to massive chromosomal abnormalities), PCOS, hyperthyroidism, listeriosis, toxoplasmosis, acute heavy metal poisoning, use of methotrexate and or misoprostal…But, having an injury will not contribute nor will diet once you are pregnant.

What kind of outside forces can cause a miscarriage?

Q: I’ve been doing research on miscarriages, and all I can find for causes are medical. Example: genetics and deficiencies. What I’m looking for is non-biological factors that can cause a woman to lose her baby. I’ve been told (and seen in movies) that trauma to the pregnant belly can kill the unborn child. I’m wondering how much trauma it would take and how long it would take the body to expel the fetus. Thank you. And for those of you wondering, no I’m not gonna sucker punch my pregnant girlfriend, it’s for a project.I’m not a baby killer nor am I trying to get baby killing advice! I just want to know what outside forces can cause one. I’m not contemplating it, It’s for a paper, so I just want to know, what outside forces can cause one.I’ve been doing research on miscarriages, and all I can find for causes are medical.

A: Hmm…google the term ‘abortifacients’. There are many herbal concoctions and other things that can cause a body to expel a baby. Women used them in older times to try to abort babies.
