When should you see a fertility specialist at ZIVA fertility clinic?
It is advisable to consult a fertility specialist even after a single miscarriage. But the scenarios described below require an immediate consultation:
Timing of pregnancy: The timing of the miscarriage during the course of pregnancy is crucial. An early miscarriage can happen without any warning signs. If the miscarriage leaves traces of the fetus in the uterus please consult a ZIVA fertility specialist.
RPL (recurrent pregnancy loss): If one had more than two miscarriages, please immediately see a fertility specialist. We at ZIVA clinics will identify the root cause of the miscarriages and be with you throughout the next phases of treatment.

The fertility specialists at ZIVA clinics will get blood tests done and will start treatment to control the abnormal levels of blood sugar or thyroid conditions.
Autoimmune diseases: Autoimmune disease in pregnant women leading to miscarriages is Antiphospholipid Antibody (APA) Syndrome. Some women see a Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL). in such scenarios long-term treatment is required and the fertility specialist may prescribe blood thinner medicines to avoid miscarriage.
Blood clotting issues: In women with blood clotting disorder is a genetic issue. If a pregnant woman suffers from thrombophilias they may face miscarriage. The ZIVA fertility specialists will prescribe blood thinners to resolve the issue.
Bad lifestyle choices: Women who have been smoking, drinking or consuming drugs are prone to miscarriages. When one wishes to get pregnant one must take care of their lifestyle. Healthy food, adequate sleep, and proper exercise are essential for a smooth pregnancy journey. Women should start this lifestyle even before they get pregnant. The healthier the lifestyle the healthier the pregnancy and so is the delivery.
Uterine issues: When women with uterine abnormalities get pregnant, there are high chances of a miscarriage. So before getting pregnant please consult a ZIVA fertility specialist who will give non-surgical or surgical treatment to correct these issues. The most common abnormalities are fibroids, scarring, endometriosis etc. if you already had more than two miscarriages due to these issues then the appropriate treatment from an experienced fertility specialist can prevent future miscarriages.

There are many diagnostic tests, and treatments available to correct these issues. In case the issues persist the couple can opt for any ART which is most suited to them. The ZIVA fertility specialists will most probably suggest In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) and Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) treatments.
