The video discusses recurring pregnancy loss, which is defined as having three or more consecutive miscarriages. The speaker, Dr. Kavitha Kovi, HOD - Obstetrics and Gynecology at Aster Women & Children Hospital, explains that while one miscarriage can be devastating, it is often a one-time event. However, when a woman experiences multiple miscarriages, it is important to investigate the underlying causes.
Causes for Recurring Pregnancy Loss
Dr. Kavitha discusses several possible causes of recurring pregnancy loss, including chromosomal abnormalities, uterine abnormalities, hormonal imbalances, and blood clotting disorders. She emphasizes the importance of a detailed medical history, including information about previous pregnancies, menstrual cycles, and any medical conditions. Diagnostic tests may include blood tests, ultrasounds, and genetic testing.
Treatment for Recurring Pregnancy Loss
Options may include medication, surgery, or assisted reproductive technologies. Dr. Kovi reassures viewers that with proper diagnosis and treatment, many women with recurring pregnancy loss are able to successfully carry a pregnancy to term.
