Abstract

Abstract: Justification and objectives: Despite being a recurrent complication in pregnancies, abortions can lead to harmful consequences for the physical and psychological health of the pregnant woman, as well as her partner’s, especially in cases of recurrent miscarriage. This article aimed to review the main epidemiological characteristics and risk factors described in relation to recurrent miscarriage. Methods: It was developed a systematic review of pre-existing bibliography, focusing on papers that had the descriptors “abortion”, “recurrent” and “epidemiology”. The selected works were published between the years of 2016 and 2023, in Portuguese or English. Results: The etiology of miscarriages is quite diverse, including unknown factors. It is important to note that the higher the historical number of recurrent spontaneous miscarriages, the greater seems to be the chance of new pregnancy loss. Conclusions: There are regional differences that determine etiologies and risk factors. It is essential to understand what is causing the recurrent miscarriage in order to offer effective treatment.
