Common causes of miscarriage

Miscarriage is never something pleasant, and this is why a lot of women would like to find out the causes of it so that they can avoid them. There are numerous medical conditions that could lead to miscarriage, and there are also some other actions or events that can induce it.

Miscarriage can be divided into two categories: single miscarriage and recurrent miscarriages. The causes of one-time pregnancy losses are usually caused by chromosomal abnormalities in the developing baby. And they often occur in the first trimester of pregnancy.

In recurrent miscarriages, causes are much more controversial than the single miscarriages. Some doctors will test for and treat particular problems while others will not. Widely recognized causes of recurrent miscarriages include the following:

Infections including German measles, CMV (cytomegalovirus), mycoplasma, gonorrhea, HIV and certain other infections
Exposure to environmental and workplace hazards such as high levels of radiation or toxic agents
Hormonal problems
Uterine abnormalities such as endometriosis and severe uterine adhesion
Incompetent cervix (the cervix begins to widen and open too early, in the middle of pregnancy, without signs of pain or labor)
Lifestyle factors such as smoking, drinking alcohol, or using illegal drugs
Disorders of the immune system, including lupus
Severe kidney disease
Congenital heart disease
Diabetes that is not controlled
Thyroid disease
Certain medications, such as the acne drug Accutane
Severe malnutrition

In addition, women may be at increased risk for miscarriage as they get older. Studies show that the risk of miscarriage is 12% to 15% for women in their 20s and rises to about 25% for women at age 40. The increased incidence of chromosomal abnormalities contributes to the age-related risk of miscarriage.

Another commonly recognized reason for miscarriage is medications. Some medications have been linked to increased risk of miscarriage, so it's important to ask your caregiver about the safety of any medications you're taking, even while you're trying to conceive. This goes for prescription and over-the-counter drugs, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen and aspirin.

Attention: living habits are very likely to cause colpitis mycotica!

75% women in the world are infected with colpitis mycotica. Though this is an ailment that can be easily cured, it has a rather high recurrent rate, reaching as high as four times a year. Therefore, it is of great importance to find out its root causes so that measures can be taken to prevent its relapse. Researchers have found out that,athlete’s foot is the most common source of this illness.

In a family, even if only one member has athlete’s foot, colpitis mycotica is likely to occur. The reason mainly lies in the fact that many families wash underwear and socks together, which is in fact unscientific. This kind of laundry will spread mucor on the shoes and socks to underwear. Once wearing infected underwear, females are very likely to get colpitis mycotica. Therefore, for the sake of health, it should be forbidden to wash underwear with socks together.

In fact, except the athlete’s foot, there are many other living habits that can cause colpitis mycotica. Here is a list of another six common causes:

Wearing chemical fiber underwear
The chemical fiber underwear always has bad air permeability. And this will lead to the increased temperature in vagina, creating a suitable condition for mold breeding.

Excessive cleaning
Washing the vagina frequently easily builds a humid environment. And it changes the normal PH environment of the vagina. This humid and acid environment offers convenience for mold breeding.

Improper contraception
The estrogen in birth control pills can promote mold invasion, resulting in recurrent colpitis mycotica.

The abuse of antibiotics
The long-term use of antibiotics can inhibit the function of partial probiotics, destroying the normal relationship between vaginal floras, the mold thereby multiplying.

Not treating the partners
It is estimated that about 10% of men will suffer balanoposthitis. So if one suffers colpitis mycotica, then both the patient herself and her partner should be treated. In this way the recurrent rate of colpitis mycotica can be greatly decreased. Once suffering this infection, females can use alkaline conditions to wash vagina and use some drugs for external use to eliminate the mold.

Neglect of the public hygiene
Public facilities always contain large amounts of mold. For example, the public baths and closestools are all good places for mold breeding.
