Roughly 1 in 4 women experience a pregnancy loss. This might be an early pregnancy loss due to an abnormality detected in utero, a late miscarriage, or a still birth. We have a quarter of women going through a trauma that is not often spoken about.
After losing a pregnancy, there are many unanswered questions. As humans, we may want answers because that helps us navigate the future with more certainty.
50% of all miscarriages are due to a chromosomal abnormality. Products of Conception (POC) Screening can provide you and your doctor with information for future planning. POC may give answers to those suffering a pregnancy loss and help doctors assess your future risk and determine the next step forward.
Seeing a genetic counsellor can provide support in the form of information about your loss, as well as information about how that loss might affect future pregnancies. They are a great resource for understanding how certain genetic conditions might affect you or your family.
