Publisher's Synopsis
A miscarriage cannot be prevented in most cases. A miscarriage is a pregnancy that ends unexpectedly in the early weeks or months. This is also called a spontaneous abortion.
The factors that lead to most miscarriages are unavoidable. These issues include chromosomal abnormalities and fetal development problems.
Miscarriages are common. Approximately 10% of early pregnancies result in a miscarriage before the twentieth week.The real number of miscarriages may actually be higher, too, as many people miscarry before knowing they're pregnant.
