| description | Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is estimated to occur in 2.5% of women
trying to conceive. Definition of RPL varies depending on used
guideline. In Europe, RPL is defined as two or more lost pregnancies
before 24 weeks’ gestation. Although many factors have been associated
with a higher risk of recurrent miscarriage, the aetiology is unknown in
about half of cases. Several factors have been related to recurrent
pregnancy loss, such as: environmental, behavioral, genetic, endocrine,
metabolic, autoimmune, anatomic, thrombophilia and male factor. Given
the multitude of etiopathogenic factors, RPL frequently requires an
interdisciplinary approach for diagnosis and treatment. By its repetitive
nature, RPL represents a psychological trauma on the couple who wants
to conceive a child. Consequently, empathy and support are also
necessary to be integrated in the therapeutic approach in the case of
couples with recurrent miscarriage. |
