Hi,I am Dr. Shivaprasad C (Endocrinologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Are Problems With Baby's Genes And Chromosomes Due To Mother's Errors?
what are the rationale whyProblems with the baby's genes or chromosomes are typically the result of errors that occur by chance. A mother's health condition — such as uncontrolled diabetes, thyroid disease, infections, blood-clotting problems, or problems with the uterus or cervix — may lead to miscarriage. Routine activities — such as exercising, having sex, working or lifting heavy objects — can't provoke a miscarriage. And a fall or other injury is unlikely to cause a miscarriage, unless the injury is serious enough to threaten your own life causes abortion?
