Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) presents unique challenges during pregnancy, increasing the risk of early pregnancy loss. Understanding the contributing factors and implementing appropriate strategies is crucial for improving pregnancy outcomes. Several interventions, including lifestyle modifications, medical management, and careful monitoring, may reduce the likelihood of miscarriage in individuals with PCOS.
Successfully navigating pregnancy with PCOS offers substantial benefits. Minimizing miscarriage risk leads to healthier pregnancies, increased rates of live births, and improved maternal and infant well-being. Historically, limited understanding of PCOS and its impact on reproduction contributed to higher miscarriage rates. Advances in medical research and clinical practices have significantly improved the prognosis for women with PCOS who wish to conceive and carry a pregnancy to term.
