Most miscarriages are caused by genetic abnormalities in the fetus.
Unfortunately, there is nothing that can be done to prevent miscarriages caused
by genetic abnormalities.
However, not all miscarriages are caused by genetic abnormalities. If you have
had a miscarriage, work with your health care provider to determine the reason
for your miscarriage, if possible, and to plan a future pregnancy . A healthy
lifestyle before and during pregnancy may help. Here are some tips that may help
prevent miscarriage:
Be sure to take at least 400 mg of folic acid every day, beginning at least one
to two months before conception, if possible.
Exercise regularly.
Eat healthy, well-balanced meals.
Manage stress .
Keep your weight within normal limits.
Don't smoke and stay away from secondhand smoke .
Don't drink alcohol or have more than one to two cups of a caffeinated
beverage like coffee a day.
Avoid illicit drugs.
Make sure you are up to date on immunizations.
These steps may help to prevent miscarriage, too:
Avoid radiation and poisons such as arsenic, lead, formaldehyde, benzene, and
ethylene oxide.
Take special care to keep your abdomen safe while pregnant. Avoid sports that
carry a higher risk for injury, such as contact sports and skiing, and always wear
your seat belt.
Check with your health care provider before taking any medication including
over-the-counter drugs during pregnancy.
Avoid environmental hazards such as X-rays and infectious diseases.
You can also help ensure a healthy baby by finding out about and treating any
health conditions you have before you try to conceive. If, for example, you know
a previous miscarriage was due to an autoimmune response or a hormonal
imbalance, seek treatment for this underlying condition. Once you become
pregnant, get early, comprehensive prenatal care to improve your chances of a
healthy pregnancy.
