Journal Title: Journal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 8
Abstract
This is a cross sectional, single visit, outpatient clinic based study done on 100 female patient with history of at least one spontaneous pregnancy loss of less than or equal to 20 weeks gestation over a period of 6 months. In our study we aimed to evaluate the prevalence of recurrent spontaneous miscarriages and associated risk factors. The overall estimate of miscarriages in the present study was approximately 15% and the prevalence of recurrent spontaneous miscarriages was 3%. Spontaneous abortion/ miscarriage is heterogeneous condition and remarkably difficult to measure as many happen very early in the pregnancy.
