The technical definition for recurrent miscarriages or “recurrent pregnancy loss” (RPL) is ‘three or more consecutive losses of recognized pregnancies before the 20th week or 5th month of pregnancy’.
Approximately 15 percent of pregnant women experience sporadic loss of a recognized pregnancy. Just 2 percent of pregnant women experience two pregnancy losses in a row, and only about 1 percent have three consecutive pregnancy losses.
There are many factors that may lead to the diagnosis of “Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL)” including genetics, anatomic, medical conditions, and lifestyle factors. But, good news! There are steps you can take to decrease your chances of experiencing RPL and improve your chances of getting and staying pregnant.
Here are some steps you can take to improve your chances of getting pregnant and having a healthy baby:
Get your body really healthy
Waiting at least three months before you try to get pregnant again is so important, especially if you are experiencing “Recurrent Pregnancy Loss”. Do a fertility cleanse to rid toxins from your system and get your digestive system functioning optimally.
Eat a nutrient-dense fertility diet.
What you eat has an impact on:
- The health of your eggs
- Your hormonal balance
