Causes of recurrent miscarriages

Age- After the age of thirty five the risk of miscarriages escalates. After forty, more than 33% undergoes miscarriages. The rate of miscarriage prior to the age of thirty five is about 10-20%.

Uterine Abnormalities- Some women are born with abnormalities in the uterine; double uterus or an abnormally shaped uterus. This may result in problems like improper implantation, irregular blood supply to the uterus, less room for the baby to develop and grow.

Ineffectual Cervix- A Cervix that is not competent enough would cause trimester miscarriages or premature labor. Weakened cervix may require a surgical procedure, called cerclage (a surgical stitch around the cervix, preventing it from dilating prematurely).

There are other hormonal causes like luteal phase defect, polycystic ovarian syndrome, other hormonal conditions, auto-immune disorders, infection, male factor and some other unknown causes.
