pregnancy loss

Pregnancy loss, often called miscarriage, occurs when a pregnancy ends on its own before the baby can survive outside the womb, typically before 20 weeks. It is a common event and can happen due to various reasons, such as chromosomal abnormalities, health conditions, or other factors affecting the pregnancy. Most losses happen early, often without a clear cause. Experiencing a pregnancy loss can be emotionally challenging, and medical care can help ensure physical recovery. It’s important to remember that pregnancy loss is usually not caused by something the mother did, and support is available for emotional healing.
