Hello
Thanks for your query.
Ig G indicates a past infection with rubella and CMV and positive Ig G levels infact indicate that you have developed immunity to the infections.
You can definitely plan your pregnancy, as these results are NORMAL and you require NO TREATMENT for these reports.
For the missed abortion, ideally karyotype of the products of conception should have been done.
Also, screening for other infections, screening for autoimmune disorders, hypothyroidism, gestational diabetes, blood group mismatch, anomalies of the uterus, hormonal imbalance etc should be done before planning your pregnancy.
Consume folic acid for atleast 3 months prior to planning your pregnancy.
Take care.
