Medicine to prevent miscarriage in first trimester

The first and maybe the most important thing to know about early miscarriage is that it is extremely common. Between 50 to 60% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage of those about half are very early miscarriages.

Which often occur before a woman even knows she is pregnant. An early miscarriage is defined as a pregnancy loss that occurs during the first thirteen weeks of pregnancy. But really, most early miscarriages occur before your doctor can see a fetus with heart motion on an ultrasound which is typically around 7 to 8 weeks.

How to prevent early miscarriage:

The good news is that if you have an early miscarriage and are experiencing vaginal bleeding, but your doctor can see fetal heart motion on ultrasound – 95% of those pregnancies will go on to result in a viable baby.

A slow heart rate on ultrasound, however, is a concerning sign. A slow heart rate is seen in nearly 70% of early miscarriages. Stated another way, the likelihood of having an early miscarriage is 30 times higher if the ultrasound shows a low heart rate. A slow heart rate in combination with vaginal bleeding is seen in 85% of early miscarriages.

How slow is slow ? If the measured heart rate is less than 110 beats per minute then that is of concern. A number of things can cause an early miscarriage. The most common cause is the embryo or fetus does not have the correct number of chromosomes.

Things which could miscarriage:

A normal fetus has 46 chromosomes – 23 from each parent. 60 to 70% of early miscarriages are found to have an incorrect number of chromosomes. As women get older, this number gets higher.

So older women are more likely to have a miscarriage and any given miscarriage is more likely to be from a chromosome problem.

Other things that probably increase the risk for early miscarriage include:

  • smoking
  • drinking alcohol
  • caffeine
  • obesity
  • taking supplements other than prenatal vitamins

Things that do not cause early miscarriage include: stress having sex during pregnancy exercise during pregnancy using birth control before pregnancy falling during pregnancy getting hit in the abdomen or morning sickness. In fact, women with morning sickness have a lower risk for miscarriage.

Symptoms of early miscarriage

The most common signs and symptoms of early miscarriage are vaginal bleeding and cramping. However, these symptoms are also pretty common in women who do not go on to have an early miscarriage.

If you are pregnant and have bleeding, please contact your doctor for further evaluation! Your doctor will want to get a blood test to measure your HCG levels and an ultrasound.

This is important to do because some women with early pregnancy bleeding may actually have a tubal pregnancy, which is less common, but much more dangerous.

One of the most common questions I get asked is: Can an early miscarriage be prevented? The answer depends on whether you are already pregnant. If you are not pregnant and you are trying to prevent an early miscarriage in your next pregnancy, then there are a number of things you can do.

Things to avoid during pregnancy:

Stop those bad habits. Avoid alcohol, cigarettes and caffeine. If you are overweight, lose weight If you are older, ask your doctor about IVF combined with testing the embryos for chromosome abnormalities. If you’ve had multiple early miscarriages, meaning three or more… see your doctor to be evaluated for recurrent pregnancy loss.

There may treatable problems that can be found If you are already pregnant, besides the things I discussed before, there is probably not much you can do. Bed rest will not help.

Avoiding stress will not help, though it may make you feel better. Taking progesterone supplements have been recommended in the past but there really is very little evidence that it will reduce the chance for an early miscarriage, but it probably won’t harm anything.

Another question I get asked all the time is: How soon can you try to conceive after having had a miscarriage? In the past, doctors told patients, without any evidence, to wait at least three months. However, we have solid scientific data that shows attempting pregnancy again right away, as soon as you start ovulating, will increase the chance for a successful pregnancy.
