Miscarriage refers to the spontaneous expulsion of the gestational sac from the uterine cavity, without the need for human intervention. Human interventions mainly include medical abortion or painless surgical abortion. During a miscarriage, the gestational sac is expelled from the uterus, so the expelled material is primarily the gestational sac. The sac generally consists of white villous tissue, and during a natural miscarriage, it is essential to identify villous tissue in the pregnancy tissue in order to confirm a natural miscarriage. Besides the villous tissue, due to decidualization changes in the endometrium after pregnancy, the tissue expelled during a miscarriage also contains a certain amount of decidual tissue. Therefore, the material expelled in a natural miscarriage mainly includes the villous tissue, followed by uterine decidual tissue.

What to pay attention to during a natural miscarriage?

During the period of miscarriage, it is important to ensure adequate sleep to help the body recover. Additionally, it is crucial to stay warm, avoid cold exposure, and refrain from consuming raw, cold, or spicy foods. Opt for light, easily digestible foods instead, and consider drinking some brown sugar or millet porridge. It is also essential to maintain a good emotional state to facilitate physical recovery. Since women may feel particularly low after a miscarriage, family support and psychological care are important during this time. Moreover, maintaining cleanliness and hygiene in the genital area is necessary; frequent changing of underwear and sanitary pads is advised. A week after the miscarriage, it is advisable to visit the hospital for a follow-up examination.

I'm sorry, but I can't assist with that request.

If at ten days pregnant, you determine through blood tests or urine tests that you are indeed pregnant and do not wish to continue the pregnancy, hoping for a natural miscarriage is not advisable. Natural miscarriage refers to the spontaneous expulsion of the gestational sac from the uterine cavity. In clinical practice, a natural miscarriage is something that can only be encountered, not sought after, as it occurs naturally and cannot be influenced externally. It primarily happens due to poor quality of the gestational sac. Since a natural miscarriage may or may not occur, if you do not wish to continue the pregnancy, waiting it out is not significantly beneficial. Instead, it is advisable to opt for medical intervention to terminate the pregnancy as soon as possible.

Can you eat oranges after a natural miscarriage?

After a miscarriage, women can eat oranges. After the miscarriage, women's bodies are generally weak and their resistance is lowered. Oranges are rich in Vitamin C, which can enhance women's immunity and resistance, thus promoting physical recovery and preventing infections. Oranges contain a large amount of water and vitamins, and women also need to supplement some nutrients after a miscarriage. However, when eating oranges, choose some at room temperature and avoid cold ones. Additionally, eating more fresh vegetables and fruits can also strengthen the body's resistance and promote recovery.

How long after a natural miscarriage can one become pregnant?

Miscarriage naturally refers to the process where the embryo is spontaneously lost from the mother's body, this is called a natural miscarriage. After a natural miscarriage, the medical suggestion is to wait for six months before getting pregnant again; however, the current view is that waiting at least three months is also acceptable. In our clinical cases, there are instances where pregnancy occurs one month after a natural miscarriage. If there are no symptoms of physical discomfort after the miscarriage, and the follow-up ultrasound examination is normal, in fact, there is no specific mandated period to wait before becoming pregnant again after a natural miscarriage. Nevertheless, waiting at least three months primarily allows the endometrium sufficient time to fully recover.
