Case Summary

  • Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is defined as two or more consecutive pregnancy losses before 20 weeks gestation, affecting 1-5% of fertile couples.

The etiology of RPL is idiopathic in 40-50% of cases, while the remaining 50% can be attributed to genetic, anatomic, endocrine, thrombophilic, immunologic, infectious, lifestyle, and environmental factors.
