Dr. Kevin Brown answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Miscarriage: There is no such thing as "without any risk of miscarriage." all pregnancies have a small chance of miscarriage. Your risk depends on the cause of your miscarriage and your health history. For a normal/healthy woman, 6 months is fine.
