Miscarriages can occur due to a number of reasons. In some causes the fetus may be rejected by the mother’s immune system while in other cases, the fetus may be non-viable and the pregnancy ends naturally. Anatomic abnormalities such as a loose or incompetent cervix or problems during conception such as an ectopic pregnancy can also cause the pregnancy to end before term. If a woman suffers from a miscarriage or multiple miscarriages, there are some things she can do to help improve the chances of a successful pregnancy the next time around. While home remedies and herbal treatments to avoid a miscarriage are not foolproof, they can be combined with some simple lifestyle changes that may reduce the risk of a subsequent miscarriage. Remember to always check with your doctor before beginning any new treatment to prevent any further complications.
