Recurrent miscarriage is generally caused by two factors: maternal factors and fetal factors. Maternal factors are related to the mother's hormone levels, inadequate corpus luteum function, and ovulation disorders. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the kidneys are the foundation of congenital health. If the kidney qi is insufficient and combined with weak postnatal spleen and stomach function, this condition often occurs.
Another factor is fetal factors. During the formation process, the fetus may be affected by infection factors, genetic factors, as well as environmental and social factors. For example, clinical observations have shown that if a mother with viral influenza experiences fever during early pregnancy, the risk of congenital heart disease in the child may increase to a certain extent. It is recommended to first conduct tests on pregnancy hormones, including thyroid function and immune indicators. If the menstrual flow is light, it is necessary to examine the uterine endometrial environment (which is the soil for conception) through relevant tests. The male partner should also undergo routine semen examination, especially for viral infections (5 items in TOUCH), and after ruling out these factors, traditional Chinese medicine will consider using herbal medicine to regulate the spleen, nourish the kidneys, and soothe the liver and regulate qi for a period of time, combined with relevant fertility indicators to determine whether it is suitable to conceive again.
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the importance of invigorating the spleen, warming the kidneys, and nourishing yin. It is recommended that women with this condition avoid excessively cold and cool foods and eat more spleen-invigorating foods such as lentils and Chinese yam. Kidney-warming foods such as black beans are also beneficial. Additionally, drinking soy milk regularly not only nourishes the kidneys but also increases estrogen levels.
