Emotional Journey of Recurrent Pregnancy Loss: What Women, Partners, Friends & Family Need to Know

Miscarriage has "come out of the shadows" and society has begun to talk about this very personal, distressing experience.  Women and/or partners who experience recurrent pregnancy loss have an especially emotional journey, during which they may feel very alone and lost. Drs. Williams and Shah review what is known about the mental health issues associated with recurrent pregnancy loss, shining a light on this particular fertility journey. They discuss approaches to decrease stress and improve mental health including nonpharmacologic interventions such as lifestyle changes, nutrition and psychotherapy, as well as clarify when medications may be needed to improve mood and anxiety symptoms. This talk also addresses how partners, friends and family can support women who are experiencing recurrent pregnancy loss.
