Key Facts To Understand And Cope With A Miscarriage

When To Try Again

Most women who have a miscarriage will go on to have successful pregnancies. After experiencing a miscarriage, talk to a doctor about how long to wait before trying again. Many doctors recommend waiting until the end of one to three menstrual cycles before trying again. However, it is also important for couples to wait until they feel emotionally ready. If there is a history of two or more miscarriages, speaking with a doctor about what may be causing the miscarriages can be helpful to figure out the best way to conceive and maintain a healthy pregnancy. Further testing may help to identify hormone problems, immune system issues, or problems with either parent’s chromosomes. An ultrasound can also help to detect uterine problems.
