Preventing Early Miscarriages at 6 to 8 Weeks 

Play it at 1.5x

I was watching your videos after having 5 abortions consecutively for no apparent reasons. I did many blood tests including factor 5 Leiden, other blood clotting disorders, endometrial reaction I forgot the test name. But with prayers especially I write down god's word in a note book and prayed - along with that did deworming, vitamin 50000 iu, vitamin e, calcium iron tablets to combat anemia, I became pregnant in 2020 and 2021 and god blessed me with one boy and one girl

My wife misscaried yesterday (first pregnancy ever). Her OBGYN has already suggested doing these aditional tests mentioned by Dr. Gleicher. She did mention that in other countries (we live in Mexico) the system was more rigid regarding testing for other things right away... I don't get why anyone would make you wait and go through loss multiple times before trying to identify a deeper problem.

I totally agree! Why does a woman have to go through repeat miscarriages. Find the underlying cause after the first incident. These days doctors (insurance companies) want you to have 3 on record before they can truly help. Grr

Thank you so much for your explanations, Dr. Gleicher! 🙏🌻👏👏👏

Genius, makes complete sense thank you so much this is exactly what I needed to hear. And theoretically this sounds on point

How are miscarriages investigated? Is the fetal tissue collected during the miscarriage? God, what I would give to have a knowledgeable doctor on my side right now. Imagine having a medical professional invested enough to take the extra step and answer the "why". Imagine.

Dear Dr Excellent description. Be blessed

Thank you for the information I really appreciate you

Thanks for the Vid. Please can you do a video on Amniotic band syndrome

great information thank you Doctor

Sir , I had recurrent chemical pregnancies and miscarriages after seeing your video I myself tested for autoimmune disorder and found I am having the same . Now I am taking medicine . MY heartfelt thanks to you for helping identifying this issue . You are awesome.

I had multiple issues that other clinics missed: low progesterone, a prolactinoma, a thyroid condition, bv infections killing off my spouse's sperm, killer cell, and estradiol levels that would drop if my workplace was too stressful or if I exercised too much causing me to not ovulate some months. My first 5 doctors missed it. My 6th doctor only diagnosed the prolactinoma after two years of failed IUIs and a failed IVF. I finally got a new Dr. who was very patient and thorough to help medicate and monitor all of this.

Thank you for your work Doctor. I had malaria and salmonella at the same time when I was 4 weeks pregnant, I was admitted to the hospital and put on IV Chloroquine. My pregnancy continued until 12 weeks. When I went for my 3-month scan, the doctors noticed my baby passed away. I always hear that one should watch out for malaria and Salmonella in the second trimester. Could the cause of my miscarriage have been malaria & Salmonella?

Thank you for sharing your wisdom. It helps me to know I am not having unrealistic expectations. My OBGYN basically told me that there was no point in doing any additional testing to find out why I am having a miscarriage. That seems ridiculous to me.

Sir you are excellent

Excellent

Very insightful. My grandfather had diagnosed rheumatoid arthritis that left him hospitalized for a year with an honorable discharge from the airforce. I know that I have arthritis but it is not technically diagnosed. Regardless if it is why I had my recent miscarriage or not, I will begin treating my arthritis. Thank you sir.

Thank you 💗👍

Recent repeat miscarriage and in 2014 I was diagnosed with Lupus.. now I have a better understanding my other kids were born before I had so much inflammation within my body .. thanks 😊 so much for the information

I found that the oral/vaginal progesterone medications did not work well for me and my levels varied. I have low progesterone which makes it hard for me to stay pregnant. I found out that the shots work very well and are covered by my insurance. I was able to get used to giving myself the shots and I'd rather take them since they gave me very good progesterone levels. I just wish I could figure out and cure the reason my body does not have high or good progesterone levels naturally.

Thanks for video- I wanted to hear HOW you treat with you have ANA/immune markers. I’ll ask about anti inflammatory and or immunosuppressant meds at my next MFM appt. I’m 37 MC at 8wks post heartbeat at 7wks. Didn’t do analysis as it was 2k and first so insurance didn’t cover it, now wish I did. I’m a complex case in that lupus Anticoagulation and high factor viiii found during early pregnancy. Also, I have positive ANA and hx of hashi’s and sjogrens (no active antibodies). Will try again here next cycle wish us luck!

Excellent video

Thanks

Right on ❤

What about a woman with autoimmune thyroiditis and basedow graves ? Could that be prevented by the right treatment given by an endocrinologist? Thanks

Thank you for this very informative video!

would chronic stress or anxiety be considered as inflammatory on the body?

According to this video, is it safe the COVID vaccine for pregnant women? Immune system vs pregnancy?

God bless you.v informative video

Is there link between essential hypertension and pregnancy or pregnancy loss? Would be great to see a video on this topic.

I believe I figured out myself why I’ve had 2 miscarriages. I have a daughter . Before my daughter I had a miscarriage then I started taking fertility pills and planned my daughter and ended up going with a fullterm pregnancy, she’s now 13 months . I just had a miscarriage a few days ago and I didn’t do anything to boost my fertility. I think I just simply need an immune/fertility boost. I wish I had known I would get preg I would have been prepared. I will be next time because we are trying again in a few months 🙏🏽

What about hashimato?

How much do you focus on diet with these women? It seems that diet has a huge impact on autoimmune issues. Specifically gluten and dairy.

I had a miscarriage at 4 weeks and 3 days gestation I got a ultrasound at the hospital and got the cd of my angel picture and there was a tiny amount of fuilde and was wondering if that was the sac of were my baby was growing

What do you think about miscarriages with HCV virus? Please do a video on Hep C and pregnancy if you can?

Now i had a miscarriage in 2007 than i got pregnant with daughter 6months later, my daughter is now 15 years old, ive been with my fiancee for 9years and i just got pregnant by him and i had a miscarriage in February 23,2024 and i was 6weeks and 3days, same as i was when i miscarried my first one. Now the obgyn tolded me it was a chromosome so now im trying to have another one. They also said because i havent had a child in 15 years and because i just turned 35 and my fiancee will be 45 in November. I kept my body healthy every test results and blood work came back great, but i still dont know what chromosome had the embro/fetus stop growing but they just say it was a chromosome and the baby would have came out with down syndrome or some type of disabilities. Broke my heart.

I’ve had 6 miscarriages and I have 4 autoimmune diseases and I feel like doctors in Scotland don’t get it 😢. I have Antiphospholipid Syndrome - was on blood thinners when pregnant Crohns Disease - on Pentasa for that Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis - (no treatment) And autoimmune hepatitis - on prednisone and also Azathriopine but I feel like the doses aren’t enough. I keep just losing babies and they don’t even have a next step 😢x

What can you do then if you have hashimotos

Hypothyroidism causes high rate of misscarriage. Rarely does the medical community care or acknowledge that. Thank you for pointing it this

I have UC and flare everytime I get pregnant. Just found out I'm pregnant and sure enough started flaring.

Doctor, I just had two miscarriages in a row in two months. The current practice is to not find the cause until the 3rd one. I’m scared.

What if miscarriage is due to low protein s ?

Is the takeaway to get tested before or during early pregnancy? Great information but what are the prevention methods?

If I’m allergic to cats and I have a cat, could that put me in risk for a miscarriage??

I have Mast Cell Activation Syndrome from hEDS… I just went through a miscarriage 6 days ago at 4 weeks 3 days pregnant. I’m wondering if this is what happened…😔 This was my 2nd pregnancy. I had a live birth and healthy baby 17 years ago.

I have 2 missed abortions ...no heart beat could develop.its heart rending I wish sone miracle for me

Could having Henoch-schönlein purpura as a child be related to multiple miscarriages. Every one of my pregnancies, I have had a miscarriage.

Hello, firstly, thank you for this informative video. After my 2nd pregnancy and during my 2nd cesarean section in May 2021, my OB informed me that I have a septate uterus. I became pregnant in August 2022, and miscarried the following month in September 2022. I was 6 weeks gestation. My question: how high are the risks of miscarriage due to septate uterus, even after 2 successful pregnancies? I would like to know if I need to have surgery or do anything different for future pregnancies.

Nice loud suit!

Also I was on clexane and progesterone throughout my pregnancy

This was amazing...I have an auto immune disease and miscarried twice.

Can taking an anti histamine such as Claritin help in these cases? I've had several chemical pregnancies and I have elevated auto immune markers in my blood test and my body tends to be very sensitive (seasonal allergies, sensitivity to costume jewelry, etc...). I take the supplement Quercetin everyday as it is supposed to help but I'm wondering if a Claritin might help? Great content! Thank you!

What is the reason behind missed miscarriages. Anybody know about that???

Thank you doctor, it is so common nowadays and your explanation makes so much sense .My daughter just had first one and she was very sick at her 13 years old, lots of skin problems and every biopsy showed different result, we went to USA seeking second opinion but everybody was saying just let her be she’ll overgrow this problem . She did , but now this : baby did not have heart sound during first ultrasound

I have had 3 reaccurent miscarriages and have been tested for antibody test, chromosome analysis and lupus, all three came back negative/ normal. Also, I have had 3 surgeries due to reaccurent overian cysts, and I have hypothyroidism. Am now 33 years old. Between my miscarriages I was in age range 30-33. It's still unclear why I have had 3 miscarriages. After my 3rd miscarriage I have been referred to a high risk obgyn. I'm not sure what else to do. I am to go with the flow of the doctors and hope they will be able to help me.

Gosh this is frustrating. How can I treat Rheumatoid Arthritis in early pregnancy? I was told there’s no safe medicine and have intense inflammatory muscle and joint pain. I am doing progesterone, anti inflammatory diet and supplements, etc. so what else can I do? Repeat miscarriages at 7 weeks. Eggs healthy. Sperm healthy, implantation happens. Hcg never quite gets high enough. How do we immunosuppress for me to sustain? No doctor knows or will even talk about this with me :(

What about missed miscarriage And ovarian cysts?

Is that true that physalis helps the embryo stick?

Hey MD, thankyou so much for explaining it vastly … i recently had a miscarriage (first one) and being a doctor its like having an eager to know what would exactly the cause be? But hearing u made my thinking concise and increased my knowledge of what tests i should go further I would like to add it that females should prefer testing themselves conveniently so they can prevent further miscarriage(God Forbids), its better then suffering the pain and depression phase again as that is more costly then the other factors.

Watched at 2x but still did not get how to prevent misc.

Endometrial killer cells. I took injections to ovulate but it was making my uterus thin. So pray and take meds, it will do wonders

I (age 36) just got first miscarriaged last week due to chromosome abnormalities at my 5th week. Kaiser Ob Gyn doesn’t want to run the blood tests, LH ...etc. I couldn’t even go to fertility docs since it’s the 1st time n they recommend after 2nd time.. so frustrating... what should I do to prevent another one?

If pregnancy type symptoms such as breast tenderness, gum sensitivity, emerge the day after intercourse last for 6 days than suddenly dissappear, is this a sign of autoimmune infertility.

I had three healthy children. I had my first miscarriage early March. And now I’m having my second one. I believe the first one happened because we conceived with COVID. But now I’m not sure. Any idea on if COVID effects anything?

Im 7 weeks preg and at 5 weeks my dr put me on progesterone 200mg suppositories from previously 2 miscarriages. The side effects have been unbearable. I'm extremely nauseous all day long. Constantly out of breath. My Dr now wants me to stop taking the progesterone because she's concerned about me being out of breath. Wondering if this may be due to my progesterone levels being too high with the added suppository.

If i get it correctly, women who get a little feverish at the beginning of the pregnancy are more likely to misscarry. Is that possible, Doctor Gleicher? Btw: Nice German name 😉

Do you happen to know anything about HLA-C partial mismatches? I’m KIR AA C2/C2 and my husband is C1/C2. I’ve had 3 losses at 6 weeks or less.

My nip test is normal so mine is not chromosomal abnormality issue. I want to know why i had miscarriage :( it’s probably my body’s fault 😭

Dear Professor, can vaginal ultrasound after IVF cause early miscarriage? I am 51 years old, and in February I was pregnant with twins, but 4-5 weeks after vaginal ultrasound I started bleeding and lost the first embryo, and 2 weeks later, after the second vaginal ultrasound I lost the second too.
