In most cases, a miscarriage cannot be prevented because it is the result of a chromosomal abnormality or problem with the development of the fetus. Still, certain factors â such as age, smoking, drinking, and a history of miscarriage â put a woman at a higher risk for losing a pregnancy.
A miscarriage refers to the death of a fetus before the 24th week of pregnancy. Between 10 and 15 percent of all pregnancies end in miscarriage.
