Q I have had three recurrent miscarriages. Will a healthy pregnancy be possible for me in the future?
A Even after recurrent miscarriage, in most cases the chance of success in the next pregnancy is high once the cause is found and treated or the body's condition is restored. It varies by cause, but a live-birth success rate of 60-80% has been reported after appropriate treatment.
Detailed Answer
Recurrent miscarriage can feel hopeless, but in many cases the next pregnancy succeeds when the cause is identified and addressed appropriately. With cause-specific treatments such as antiphospholipid syndrome therapy, uterine septum surgery, or thyroid regulation, the prognosis improves significantly. Even when the cause is unexplained, with active management the success rate of the next pregnancy is reported at 60-80%. It is important to stay realistic while not losing hope.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
At Dongjedang, after recurrent miscarriage, we take a stepwise approach: passing through a recovery period to strengthen the uterine lining and replenish Kidney deficiency, then combining pregnancy-securing (antae) treatment as soon as pregnancy is confirmed. With the goal of building the strength to hold the fetus after implantation in the next pregnancy, we value the process of preparing together without giving up.
