Common Questions and Answers about Miscarriage causes cervix

miscarriage

Avatar f tn So now I am taking progesterone injections once a week (which i started in my 16th week) and checks my cervix thoroughly each appointment. She noticed my cervix shortening at week 25 (which is to far a long for a cerclage) so she put me on hospital bed rest for the remainder of the pregnancy. She also has me on a medication to slow contractions. She is still expecting him to come early, around week 32 but he has a 96% chance of living at that point.
Avatar f tn Very very rare to have a miscarriage at 14 weeks usually what causes a miscarriage that late is incompetent cervix something or another, basically you cervix doesnt hold the baby in right. But not a very high chance. Relax and enjoy your pregnancy. I know what it's like to worry about it. I had one earlier this year and I was worried til 12 weeks where the chances go further down. I think you good to relax now, actually worrying isn't good to do when your pregs it just stresses you out.

Avatar f tn Ok thank you so much
Avatar f tn Problems with the structure of the uterus and an incompetent cervix are the two most common causes of miscarriage during the first part of the second trimester (12 to 20 weeks). Other causes of miscarriage include infections and hormonal imbalances. In rare cases, a woman's immune system rejects the fetus, or antibodies from the immune system cause problems with blood flow in the placenta.
Avatar f tn Sex doesn't cause a miscarriage. Yes sex can irritate the cervix and cause some bleeding and maybe minor discomfort, however it will not terminate a healthy pregnancy. Miscarriages are mostly caused because there is an issue with the embryo that is incompatible with life. If you are going to miscarry, sex may help to speed the process up so to speak but its not the reason you miscarry. Correlation does not imply causation.

Avatar f tn What causes Miscarriages and when is it common for them to happen?
Avatar n tn Some ppl just have shorter cervix qnd others like myself contract the whole pregnancy and thats what causes my cervix to shorten. My first pregnancy i went to 38 weeks. This time im 31 weeks and been having regular contractions so hoping i make it to 32. Stay strong and rest lots and if ur doc says bedrest make sure u follow it.
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with low laying placenta that rubs against cervix and causes the bleeding. I bleed at least once a week after I move around for a long periods of time. With low placenta doctor said that it's normal but I should try to rest as much as I can to avoid bleeding.
Avatar f tn I have to get a colposcopy after the baby is born. The colposcopy is when they paint your cervix with vinegar and look at it with a microscope and take a biopsy if necessary. It's not pleasant and the biopsy hurts but it's better than finding cancer too late.
Avatar f tn With my first pregnancy with my son, my period stopped completely. Now, if my cramping and version serves me correctly, lol, I am indeed having a period! It's not a miscarriage, because I'm sure it would be a lot more painful, plus I missed my period last month which is when I got 6 positive HPTs 3 days after it was suppose to come on. Also, we were TTC.
Avatar f tn In my experience before my miscarriage, my cervix would drop withing a 1/2 day after Oing. Since the miscarriage it is harder to tell, it is always a little high. Normally it drops very soon after Oing so I'd say get busy! SSBD!
Avatar n tn i was diagnosed with having a small blood clot around my cervix i am about 8 weeks and 4 days gestation im extremely concerned of the risk factors i need to know what the risks are am i at higher risk for miscarriage can this clot harm my child im very concerned about this and need all the advice i can recieve in this matter
Avatar f tn When I was told my twins' hearts had stopped, I did wait. I was concerned that a D&C would make my cervix less able to stay closed in a subsequent pregnancy. However, it took four weeks for the miscarriage, and I have since read that if the baby does not pass relatively quickly, the chance of scar tissue in the uterus increases.
Avatar n tn Then at 41 I became pregnant with another little girl and once again I miscarried at 20 weeks. I have now been diagnosed with an incompetent cervix. Both of these pregnancies were through IVF. I am loosing hope and very depressed. Are there any success stories out there after such miscarriages? I am scheduled for my next IVF in October. Any valuable tips?
1432632 tn?1283369405 I agree with smjmekg, it doesn't matter how big he is as long as you're not told not to. It might not be very comfortable, though, as the cervix is more sensitive and changes some. I recommend using a lubricant if it's uncomfortable as that seems to ease the penis past the cervix. I don't have any medical basis for my recommendation, though, just my opinion and experience.
Avatar f tn Ive heard when your body is ready it realeases hormones that signal the cervix to soften and dialate. Contractions also help with dialation as it pushes the babys head down which also softens and help things along. Thats why they reckon sex, as sperm contains prostaglandins which is a hormone that helps soften a 'ripe' cervix. Meaning a cervix that is ready to dialate in preparation for labour.
Avatar f tn the reason they want you to get checked is because when you have any surgery done to your cervix ir can weaken, and in some cases it causes an incompetent cervix... BASICALLY you need to make sure you don't go into preterm labor & deliver too early OR miscarry.. I'd suggest going asap, the longer you wait, the more weight the baby puts on your cervix.. good luck, and I'm sure you're fine. they do it to be cautious..
Avatar f tn Most things just assist with what ur body is going to do naturally. If u build up ur uterus muscles when it's time it causes ur cervix 2 thin. U can also try nipple stimulation which lets off oxytocin which causes uterine contractions. Red Leaf Raspberry tea is excellent for strengthening ur uterus muscles as well & has essential vitamins for you &baby. I would still stick to walking, birthing balls, & squats. All of that takes time & works well 2gether. Wish you well!
Avatar f tn Went to the doctor drew blood to run test and checked my cervix which was closed and firm so now we just wait for blood to come back to see what my levels are...
Avatar f tn I was rushed to the ER yesterday for heavy bleeding and was diagnosed as a threatened miscarriage although Thank god baby had normal heartbeat and cervix was closed. I am still concerned. They have no idea where all the bleeding is coming from.bcan I still have a miscarriage?
Avatar f tn In the hospital they told me you have a ton of blood vessels in your cervix and some of them rupture or become irritated by sex (which isnt anything to worry about they grow back) but that's what causes the bleeding. Try taking it easier during sex and don't go as deep as you normally would and that can prevent some irritation.
