Pregnancy loss and implantation failure are common fertility issues, but they can be particularly distressing for patients, when early hopes of a successful pregnancy are dashed. At Dr.Lad’s Navjeevan Hospital & IVF Centre Nashik , we adopt a personalised approach for women and couples who experience recurrent pregnancy loss as this can be very emotionally draining and associated with some social stigma understanding and compassion, coupled with leading edge investigations and support
We have an established investigations service, including sperm DNA fragmentation testing, reproductive immunology, genetic testing, extensive evaluation of clotting disorders, endocrine testing, and a new range of tests focussing on endometrial health.
We have now introduced the Nashik’s first recurrent pregnancy loss clinic, combining a detailed medical assessment with ongoing support through early pregnancy.
⦁ What is Recurrent Pregnancy Loss?
A miscarriage or pregnancy loss is when you lose a pregnancy at some point in the first 23 weeks. When this happens two or more times it is called recurrent pregnancy loss. Around one woman in every 100 experiences recurrent pregnancy loss. This is about three times more than you would expect to happen just by chance, so it seems that for some women there are specific causes. For others, however, no underlying problem can be identified; their repeated pregnancy loss may be due to chance alone. Most couples who have had recurrent pregnancy loss still have a good chance of a successful birth in future, although the rate of pregnancy loss increases gradually with age.
⦁ Recurrent Pregnancy Loss Clinic
This new service is led by our expert in pregnancy loss, Dr Neha Lad . The clinic is open to new and existing patients, and for patients trying to conceive naturally as well as those having fertility treatment.
⦁ HOW IT WORKS
You will have an initial consultation with a specialist Doctor to take your history and carry out initial investigations. You will then consult with Dr Neha Lad & Dr Nitin Lad for a personalised management plan. Recent studies have demonstrated that intensive clinical and emotional support can have a significant positive impact on reducing pregnancy loss.
If pregnancy loss occurs again, your management plan will include methods to more accurately diagnose causes, adjust the management plan, and provide further support. Our specialist team will be with you every step of the way in this trying time !
