MISCARRIAGE EXPLAINED , A FORM OF INFERTILITY

MISCARRIAGE EXPLAINED , A FORM OF INFERTILITY




Hi Friend,
I am sure you have been asking this question "where is Dr. Victor?" Your concerns are understood. Other friends on my list have also been asking the same questions. Your imaginations are not far from the truth. I have actually been travelling for some weeks, I was in Dubai for a medical conference called Arab Health 2011, and immediately moved to Chennai in India to attend a very important short course on infertility , intrauterine insemination and IVF. Do not panic , by God's grace I will be back shortly.
This is actually my first time to travel to India, and my stay so far have been very interesting, medical practice here is really very advanced, I now understand why many doctors and patients come here. I myself took out time to visit the dentist, the service was excellent and charges very cheap compared to Naija.




I could have written earlier but there was no opportunity to use the internet. Now I have access, so I have quickly put up a little write up on miscarriage. This is a very important topic, many clients that I know suffering from infertility have also claimed to have had one or many cases of miscarriages. Infact a lady that has not had a life baby and have always been having recurrent miscarriages for over one year is infertile and need medical attention.

Miscarriage is the sudden end of a pregnancy at a stage where the embryo or fetus is incapable of surviving ,
generally defined as prior to 20 weeks of gestation. You are likely to suffer a miscarriage if you are 28 years and above, and if you notice from my previous writings you would have noticed that I always emphasize that infertility is related to age. So if you are 38 years and above and have been seeking pregnancy for some years, please also try some other reproductive techniques such as intrauterine insemination .

There are some symptoms you can have if you are having a miscarriage, this include
[1] Vaginal bleeding [always]
[2] Pelvic pains or abdominal cramps, most likely with a latter bleed
[3] Passage of tissues, resembling large thick blood clots.

When you suspect that a miscarriage is about to occur, occuring or have already occured, one test is very important, that is an ultrasound scan. A scan can tell if the pregnancy is still intact and alive [ that is in cases of threatened miscarriage], it can tell if the cervix is opened, or in case it has already occured, it can tell if there is any retained products of conception that need to be removed to make the womb free for another pregnancy to occur.




There are many causes of miscarriage, this include
[1] Chromosomal abnormality, this is one of the major causes of miscarriages especially in the first trimester [ prior to 13 weeks gestation]. An abnormal sperm or egg will eventually form an abnormal pregnancy, that will eventually come down, so that no abnormal baby is born.
[2] Other causes are those of uterine abnormalities, growth in the uterus like fibroids or polyps, and also weak cervix.
[3] Hormonal problems
[4] Pelvic infections
[5] Immunological disorder- This is an immune disorder that can be due to blood incompatibility or sperm reaction, and can lead to miscarriages
 Knowing the causes of miscarriages will help us to prevent it or reduce their occurencies. One wonderful way of reducing miscarriages is to have sex without barrier contraceptives, especially oral sex. Your husband's semen [sperms] during sexual activities have been proven to decrease your chances of any immunological disorder that can occur during pregnancy, so decreasing miscarriages. Immunological tolerance is most quickly established through oral introduction and gastrointestinal absorption of semen [ that means pregnant ladies should give their husbands a great blow job to reduce their chances of having a miscarriage, and do not forget to swallow some of the highly proteineous and nourishing semen --- This will definitely make the men happy]
If you see any amount of blood from your vagina at any stage of your pregnancy, PLEASE, do not manage it at home at all, JUST RUN TO THE HOSPITAL AND SEE YOUR DOCTOR.
