Mothers who are pregnant should expect that their babies are born healthy and normal. But sometimes the expectations are not fulfilled. One reason is the discharge of miscarriage or premature birth of the fetus, usually in early pregnancy.
About 80% of abortion (miscarriage) occurs before 12 Week of pregnancy. And 50% by chromosomal abnormalities, birth defects or fetus cannot survive cause can be caused.
Age of the mother during pregnancy also affects the occurrence of miscarriages. At the age of 35, which are prone to miscarriage, this is caused by age, the quality of eggs as well and the presentation of the embryo or the fetus has an abnormality or deficiency is increasing.
Maternal factors (mother) can be used for other threatened abortion, and the presence of infection (toxoplasmosis, Chlamydia trachomatis, etc.), the presence of chronic diseases (high blood pressure, etc.), endocrine disorders (diabetes, the lack of the hormone progesterone , hypothyroidism), nutrition, environmental factors (smoking, alcohol, drugs, coffee addict, radiation, toxins and other materials), disorders of the uterus and cervix, and so on.
Be determined, it is also an immune factor (which covers about 15% the cause of abortion), including through tests for lupus anticoagulant (LAC) and anticardiolipin antibodies (ACA). Women with a history of miscarriages and the antibody, a great experience, 70% of recurrent miscarriages.
The existence of these antibodies cause the platelets (blood clotting) and infrak placenta (placenta), interferes with the growth of the embryo. In addition to the above-mentioned factors, there are many other factors that are still searching.
