Medical Forum / General / General / October 2005What causes miscarriage?
Apologies if I'm in the wrong group - but my wife and I have recently experienced this and were looking for some answers. Obviously we've gone thru the usual channels asking doctors etc. but the story seems to vary depending upon which one you talk to! My wife gave up smoking the day we learned she was pregnant, stopped taking propananol [for migraines] and metaformine [to ensure regular periods] on the advice of the doctor. She also suffers from polysistic ovaries. Would any of these drugs have had a detrimental effect on her fertility? Or ability to carry a child longer than 4 weeks??? > Apologies if I'm in the wrong group - but my wife and I have recently > experienced this and were looking for some answers.

There are nearly as many causes of spontaneous abortion as there are women who experience them. Certainly the medicines she had been taking could have played a role, as well as her age, general health, genetic makeup, etc. Polycystic ovaries are more likely to cause problems acheiving pregnancy, but if there is severe enough hormonal problem involved, that too could play a role. One the other hand, many many young women women experience an early spontaneous abortion with their first pregnancies and go on to have have other full-term pregnancies.
