Description: recurrent-pregnancy-lossRecurrent miscarriage, also known as recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), is defined as two or more consecutive miscarriages.

A miscarriage is defined as the spontaneous loss of a clinically-recognized pregnancy before the 20th week.

Clinically recognized means the fetus has been identified with ultrasound or through tissue after the pregnancy loss.

About two-thirds of women who have suffered recurrent pregnancy loss have a successful pregnancy in subsequent efforts.

William Ziegler, DO, FACOG, is here to explain how a healthy lifestyle can help improve your odds: getting moderate exercise, controlling weight, quitting smoking and reducing alcohol and caffeine intake may be beneficial in avoiding RPL.
