Abstract:
Background: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) which affects 1–2%
of women is the loss of two or more consecutive pregnancies
before or during the 20th week of gestation. The aim of this
study is to determine the clinical characteristics, treatment
options and fertility after recurrent miscarriages.
Methods: In this study, a total of 514 recurrent miscarriage cases
that was diagnosed and treated between 2011 and 2017 were
retrospectively evaluated. All the related information including
the details of demographic characteristics, clinical symptoms
and findings, diagnostic tools used, treatment options, risk
factors for recurrent pregnancy loss, outcome of treatment
as well as couples underwent cytogenetic studies, radiologic
evaluation of the Müllerian system, and timed endometrial
biopsy were obtained from hospital patient database and saved
in structured data entry forms designed for this purpose.
Results: A total of 1680 deliveries with 532 RPL diagnoses
recorded and 514 of them were eligible for study and the RPL
was found 3.2%. A great majority of the patients who constituted
the study group was between 25-34 years 62.4% (296/474)
At baseline, median female age was 34.1 years, waiting time
3 years (1–17), number of previous miscarriages 2 (2–9), 147
women (20.4%) had conceived at least once in ART or AIH
cycles. After a median follow-up of 33.7 (1.7–123.0) months,
5-year pregnancy and delivery rates were 86.1 and 64.5%.
Female age (29kg/m2), number of preceding miscarriages (> 4),
late miscarriages, preclinical losses and smoking revealed nonsignificant
negative trends. Mode of conception until baseline
(spontaneously or ART/AIH) and classification into idiopathic and
nonidiopathic RPL showed no prognostic relevance. Recurrent
pregnancy wastage was found to be associated with genetic
disorders in 25 couples, Müllerian anomalies in 15, endocrine
anomalies in 23, and negative findings in 37. The subsequent
reproductive performance of each group is reviewed
Conclusion: As to give patients opportunities for as best as
possible chances to conceive a child greater emphasis should
be laid on diagnosis and appropriate treatment. Factors
associated with subfertility of couples have an important effect
on outcome.
