A member asked:

I am 41. recently had a miscarraige. i have 3 kids, youngest is two. what are the odds of another miscarraige? scared to try again. :(

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Some basic numbers: The fact that you have other kids lowers your risk of recurrent miscarriage which affects 1-2% of women.An estimated 1/3 of conceptions never implant & establish a pregnancy & of those who implant & miscarry, up to 1/3 have chromosomal defects that prevent further progress.As you age the risk of chromosomal defects climb, but your overall chances of having a normal outcome exceed 90%. Sad 4 ur loss.
