Manage episode 427376589 series 2280622
Approximately 20% to 25% of pregnancies end in miscarriage, and there are many medical reasons why it may occur. About half are caused by chromosome aneuploidy. However, less than 5% of women will experience a second first trimester loss, and less than 1% will experience three early losses. The incidence of early spontaneous pregnancy loss increases by maternal age. In this episode, we will highlight an ACOG Clinical Expert Series from May 2024, which discussed the evaluation of recurrent pregnancy loss. Is genetic testing of the POC recommended after the first occurrence, 1st trimester spontaneous loss? If so, which test is the best? What genetic testing applies to parents, and when? Listen in for details.
