What is a "miscarriage"?
A miscarriage is the loss of a baby before the 20th week of pregnancy. It happens when the fetus is not able to develop properly, often because of genetic issues, health conditions, or problems with the uterus. Symptoms can include bleeding, cramping, and the release of tissue from the vagina. While miscarriages usually cannot be prevented, medical care can help manage the situation and provide support.
