Pregnancy And Miscarriages

If you have a miscarriage how long should you wait before you try to get pregnant again?

Doctors say women who miscarry do not need to wait before trying to get pregnant again.

In fact, the new study says 30,000 women who conceived within six months of the miscarriage actually had the best chance of a healthy pregnancy. The scientists say women who conceived within six months of the miscarriage were LESS likely to have another miscarriage, termination, or ectopic pregnancy.

The findings are published in the British Medical Journal.
