Question 1

is having 3 previous miscarriages considered high risk pregnancy? is there treatment for that?

Accepted Answer

Miscarriages: Three previous miscarriages warrants an evaluation by a specialist. This specialist could be an mfm or a reproductive endocrinologist.

Question 2

can intercourse in early high risk pregnancy (due to age and sensitive cervix) cause miscarriage?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely: Unless it is very vigorous and forceful.

Question 3

hello drs 
i am t1d, 2-3 weeks pregnant. how soon do i need to go see a gynae? after 8 weeks as suggested by some pas? 
this is a high risk pregnancy due to previous complicated miscarriage.

Accepted Answer

T1 diabetes: I strongly recommend that you see your obstetrician soon and also recommend that a registered dietician and an endocrinologist or diabetologist be involved in your care early on to ensure proper calorie intake and tight control of your diabetes as I agree that you have a high risk pregnancy.

Question 4

i have osteogenesis imperfecta and i'm 8+1 weeks pregnant. could this be a factor to cause miscarriage? is this a high risk pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Depending on the type of OI, there are a number of risks to you in pregnancy ranging from heart valve problems, aneurysms to fracture.  Because connective tissue is an integral part of creating the various membranes to nurture the fetus, there can be additional risks for miscarriage and impact on fetal development. I would consider this to be a high risk pregnancy.

Question 5

i had a missed miscarriage with my 1st pregnancy i am now pregnant again am i in a high risk of having another miscarriage ?

Accepted Answer

Depends on the cause: Miscarriages occur from various reasons. Some of the fetus' genetic makeup are not healthy and thus rejected . Others are from  hormonal imbalance or an anatomic abnormality in the uterus leading to repeated miscarriages if not handled properly. This is NMS but I would guess that you will most likely be ok.

Question 6

after having 3 miscarriages i was wondering if my current pregnancy is considered high risk? i have hpv which i just recently found out about not sure if that could be a factor of why i am miscarrying

Accepted Answer

HPV : Hpv infection doesn't cause miscarriages. And yes if you had 3 miscarriages in row with out any full term pregnancy you are considered high risk pregnancy.

Good luck,

Question 7

good day, how soon should i see my doctor after getting a positive hpt.  i previously had 2 miscarriages and an ectopic, so would my pregnancy be considered high risk?

Accepted Answer

Now: Ideally you should see your doctor before you plan to get pregnant so that you may have a baseline examination and be taking pre-natal vitamins. Wish you good health and a healthy baby!

Question 8

what is a high risk pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy w/illness: Pretty much anything out of the ordinary will make your pregnancy high risk. This includes being 35 or older, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, fibroids, previous cesarean section, thyroid disease, heart disease, sickle cell anemia, previous stillborn, history of preterm labor, and the list goes on. Your OB will take care of you with the help of a perinatologist to keep you and your baby safe.

Question 9

what are the tests for high risk pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Depends: It really depends on what the pregnancy complication is.

Question 10

could i dance if i are on a high risk pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Depends...: Depends on what type of high risk. For example, it is less risky being categorized high risk due to age, than for example having vaginal bleeding. Ask your OB provider about this since it is difficult to give you a good answer if we don't have specific details on why you are considered high risk. Sorry, wish i could help better.
