AB Miscarriage  is  a  common  event  in  pregnancy.  Most  early  losses  stem  from  genetic  abnormalities,  and  thus  the  opportunity  for  prevention  is  small.  Women  with  later  miscarriage  or  with  recurrent  miscarriage  more  likely  have  a  chronic  etiology  that  may  be  modified.  In  contrast  to  these  spontaneous  losses,  pregnancy  termination  may  be  elected.  For  both  induced  abortion  and  miscarriage,  management  options  include  surgery  or  medication,  and  providers  should  have  an  understanding  of  these  methods  and  their  potential  complications.
