Engaging in sex can trigger a miscarriage
This is one of those miscarriage myths that end up scaring some women into abstinence. Sex during pregnancy, including the early and later months, is absolutely okay, as long as the mother is healthy and okay.
Women for at least 3 months following a miscarriage shouldn’t try to conceive again.
It’s normally okay for a couple to try again once the woman has experienced their first period following the miscarriage.
Newborn feeding complications to watch for include:
A)
Gagging, choking, or excessive spitting up
B)
Lack of interest in eating

Projectile vomiting after eating

Endometriosis is the result of the lack of necessary uterine tissue growth.
Endometriosis occurs when tissue that normally grows in the uterus implants and grows in other locations. This extra tissue growth — and the surgical removal of it — can cause scarring, which may obstruct the tube and keep the egg and sperm from uniting.
Women produce eggs every year they age.
A woman is born with all of the eggs she will ever have so as she ages, she has fewer eggs and the percentage of genetically normal eggs declines.
Sexually transmitted diseases such as Chlamydia cause hormone imbalance and subsequent fertility problems.
Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes prevent eggs from getting to the uterus and sperm from getting to the egg. Leading causes include pelvic inflammatory disease, sexually transmitted diseases such as chlamydia, and previous sterilization surgery.
