Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this missed abortion.

It is another form of abortion. The only difference is that it didn't come out of the uterus as a uterine bleed. The causes of abortion include chromosomal abnormalities, infections, others without any clear reasons, etc. The best thing is to contact your OBGYN and get the uterine content evacuated. Smaples should be considered for histopathology studies. Also, you should do a test for TORCH infections to find for possible reasons.

I Hope this helps and answers your query.
I wish you well and feel free to contact us again with ore questions.

Hi Dear,
there is a long list of causes which can result in missed abortion a few being cromosomal abnormality, infections like torch group of infections, diabetes, environmental hazards, stress, uncompatible blood group, use of certain drugs, smoking and alcohol intake by mother etc.
Sometimes it is difficult to know the exact cause.
However, important thing is that since it has been diagnosed, consult your gynae and get a D+C done to prevent further complications of hemorrage and infection
