Pregnancy after miscarriage04/10/1997 |
How long does it take a woman to get pregnant after losing one?
The ability to become pregnant after a miscarriage is the same as after having a baby. Once normal cycles resume, your chance of becoming pregnant is the same as before the pregnancy or miscarriage. If there are any difficulties in achieving pregnancy prior to the miscarriage, they will likely remain with subsequent attempts at pregnancy. For couples who have no problems with infertility there is approximately a 25% chance of becoming pregnant with each ovulatory cycle. Most women begin having normal ovulation three to six weeks after a miscarriage or pregnancy if breastfeeding is not involved. The only way that a previous miscarriage may complicate matters is if there were difficulties with the miscarriage such as intrauterine infection or excessive bleeding that required a surgical procedure. Even under these circumstances, once normal menstrual cycles begin the ability to become pregnant remains the same.
