What is recurrent miscarriage?

Losing two or more pregnancies before 20 weeks is considered recurrent miscarriage or early pregnancy loss. Miscarriages can happen for a myriad of reasons and are very common, more common as women get older. However, that doesn’t make each individual experience any less emotionally painful. We’re here to help you determine what may be the cause and take your next steps.

How recurrent miscarriage evaluation and treatment works

We will begin by discussing and testing you for the most common potential causes of recurrent miscarriage. Some causes may include:


  • Chromosomal or genetic abnormalities in one or both partners
  • Structural issues in the uterus, which can include:
    • Fibroids
    • Polyps
    • Scar tissue
    • Uterine abnormalities
  • Endocrine diseases such as thyroid diseases or diabetes
  • Autoimmune conditions or blood clotting issues

Many of these tests will involve bloodwork and a uterine cavity evaluation. Your team will be there to keep you informed through the whole testing process and will be ready to talk about next steps once you have some answers.


While recurrent miscarriage is common, its treatment is highly personal. After testing your doctor will determine which treatments are best for your needs. There may only be one treatment needed or a layering of treatments to address underlying fertility issues.


Recurrent miscarriage treatments could include:


  • Surgery to alleviate structural issues in the uterus
  • Fertility treatments to help select chromosomally normal embryos to transfer
  • Hormone supplementation

Regardless of whether the testing reveals the root cause of your recurrent miscarriages, we are here to carefully monitor and support your next pregnancy and help give you the best possible chance of carrying to term.

If you’ve experienced two or more early pregnancy losses, you are a candidate for recurrent miscarriage testing. Though these are painful experiences to endure, you are not alone.

The vast majority of miscarriages occur during the first trimester of pregnancy, before 12 weeks. Between 14 and 20 weeks, miscarriage rates drop to 2-3%.
