PREGNANCIES HOW IS A MISCARRIAGE DIAGNOSED? =) Bg There are various diagnostic tools your doctor may use. First, he or she will do a pelvic exam to see if your cervix THEREAFTER. has started to dilate. Then an ultrasound test will be done to check for a foetal heartbeat. Blood tests will check for pregnancy hormones in your blood and also for anaemia from blood loss. Any tissue passed will also be sent for analysis. WHAT IF YOU SUSPECT A MISCARRIAGE WHILE AT HOME? Some women miscarry while on the loo, which can be at home or elsewhere. Most times the foetus is too small or unformed to recognise. Use pads or whatever you have at hand to manage the bleeding, take pain medication and speak to your doctor immediately. HOW CAN I PREVENT A FUTURE MISCARRIAGE? Miscarriages generally happen because there's a problem with the pregnancy, so they are not really preventable. However, getting as healthy as possible before falling pregnant is always a good idea. Cutting back on caffeine, stopping smoking, drinking and any illegal drugs, getting to a healthy weight, exercising and eating a healthy, balanced diet are all positives. Progesterone treatment is a possibility to help the embryo implant in early pregnancy, but this will be advised by your doctor. Should you have an Rh negative blood type, your doctor may also advise a specific treatment to prevent your body making antibodies that could jeopardise future pregnancies. If you have had recurrent miscarriages, genetic tests and blood tests may be done in search of answers, before other steps are taken to assist with a healthy pregnancy.
