Are There Treatment Options For Recurring Miscarriages?
Treatment Of Recurring Miscarriages
Yes, Dr. Randy Morris is one a very few highly skilled reproductive specialists in the nation to offer the superior treatment option of a fetoscopy. The fetoscopy is similar to a hysteroscopy surgical procedure – the use of a fiber optic telescope to retrieve a tissue sample of the fetus that was recently miscarried. Recurrent Miscarriage – a medical condition that can affect women in their prime reproductive years – is defined by Dr. Morris as three or more miscarriages.
Treatment of Recurring Miscarriages
By way of the fetoscopy, Dr. Morris has the ability to:
- View the inside of a woman’s uterus
- Remove a sample of the fetal tissue
- Determine the cause of miscarriage
The fetoscopy is now the preferred technique for Dr. Morris to remove pure tissue of the fetus – not the mother’s. That is, unlike the standard D&C procedure, the tissue of the mother’s uterus will not contaminate the fetal tissue test results.
Benefits of Fetoscopy
The optimal benefit of the fetoscopy procedure is that it allows Dr. Morris to evaluate the cause of a miscarriage reliably. Another advantage of the fetoscopy is its reliability in analyzing a multiple pregnancy miscarriage. Using the fetoscopy, each fetus and placenta can be removed and analyzed separately.
Causes of Recurrent Miscarriages
According to Dr. Randy Morris, recent studies have found that up to 67 percent of miscarriages occur due to chromosomal abnormalities. Four to five percent of couples experiencing recurrent miscarriages suffer a structural abnormality involving two of their chromosomes. This is known as a translocation and can be experienced from either the male or the female.
