In most cases, the reason for chemical pregnancy loss cannot be determined. In truth, chromosomal abnormalities in the pregnancy cause the majority of chemical pregnancy losses. Normal embryos are made up of 46 chromosomes, 23 from the egg and 23 from the sperm. Aneuploidy occurs when an embryo has too few or too many chromosomes, which may result in miscarriage or unsuccessful implantation. Chromosomal disorders are responsible for 70-75 percent of miscarriages.
Other reasons for chemical pregnancy loss include:
-
Outside of the uterus implantation
-
Disorders of blood clotting
-
Inadequate uterine lining
-
Fibroids in the uterus (benign uterine tumors)
-
Unbalanced hormones
-
Thyroid disorder
-
Lupus-related autoimmune diseases are characterized by serum antibodies to particular antigens
-
The uterus has an abnormal shape (present from the time of birth)
