Abstract:

Recurrent abortion is classically defined as three or more consecutive pregnancy losses, although recently more than two pregnancy losses also considered as recurrent abortions. This condition affects approximately 1% of couples at reproductive age. Recurrent pregnancy loss has been attributed to anatomic uterine pathologies, genetic defects, endocrine disorders, immunologic factors, prothrombotic state and environmental factors, but 40-50% of cases remain classified as having unknown etiology. The risk of recurrence increases with the maternal age and number of successive losses. Women with previous pregnancy losses have a higher abortion risk (25%) than women with previous successful pregnancy (5%). Based on the data of recently published large randomized controlled trials and meta analyses the recommendation of ESHRE, special interest group for early pregnancy loss should include obstetric and family history, age, BMI and exposure to toxins, full blood count, antiphospholipid antibodies (Lupus anticoagulant and anticardiolipin antibodies), parental karyotype, pelvic ultrasound or hysterosalpingogram. We will present the risk factors of recurrent abortion in patients Referred to Royan Institute.
