5 Facts About the New Study Which Says up to 25% Miscarriages are Preventable
4. Other factors that caused miscarriage according to the study are:
Alcohol consumption during pregnancy, lifting weight (more than 40 pounds) and working abnormal shifts, like night shifts and double shifts.
5. Maternal age is also a factor for higher rate of miscarriages during early stages of pregnancy
Women who have decided to have kids after the age of thirty and women between the ages of 35 and 50 face more risks of having a miscarriage. The earlier the pregnancy in a woman, the more chances of a healthy and risk free pregnancy.
The researchers have also concluded that theirs is not the final word about miscarriages in women and that women not only should take good care of themselves but also should consult their doctors regularly during their pregnancy. There are also a lot of critics who do not really agree with the conclusions of the study especially the part about age being a factor in increasing the risk of miscarriages.
