Infection is one of the main causes of abortion, a cause which is more important in spontaneous abortion; infections account for only 5% of recurrent abortions. Helicobacter pylori is a gram-negative movable bacterium and urease enzymes. The aim of this study is to determine the Relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection and spontaneous abortion. Method: the methods used for this systematic review were based on the "Cochrane Systematic Study Booklet" and "Appropriate Items for Systematic and Meta-Analysis Study (PRISMA)" tool. To find references, the international Databases (MEDLINE PubMed interface), Google Scholar, and Web of Science) and domestic databases (SIDs and Magiran) and journals were searched; unlimited searching, in terms of both setting and language, was done until June 30, 2018.following keywords were used to provide a comprehensive context: helicobacter pylori; Abortion; spontaneous abortion; H. pylori; relationship; miscariage; Gastritis. Result: Based on the results of random effects model, the Relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection and spontaneous abortion in Pregnant women in 227 patients was 1.41 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.04, 1.93, I2 = 83.5%) (p = 0.014 ) . Discussion and conclusion: Based on the results of the present systematic study, there is a significant relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection and abortion. Among the factors associated with HP inflammation during pregnancy, complications such as iron deficiency anemia and nausea in pregnancy are associated with a high prevalence of Helicobacter pylori especially in developing countries. More extensive research is needed in this domain, because this specific type of inflammation is preventable with timely treatment.
