The Facts

1 million

women in the U.S. are affected by miscarriage.

Miscarriage affects almost 1 million women in the United States every year, yet today’s health care system is not designed to shepherd a woman and her family through the loss with the information and understanding they need.

Having experienced two miscarriages of her own, Kate White, M.D., provides women and their families with the two things sorely missing from their experience: detailed answers to their questions about miscarriage, and support and guidance through the healing process.

Filled with accessible information, answers to frequently asked questions and methods for coping with grief, Your Guide to Miscarriage and Pregnancy Loss empowers women undergoing pregnancy loss to take control of their experiences. Written by a medical professional who has cared for women having miscarriages for more than 20 years, this book is an earnest conversation between doctor and reader that provides compassion and guidance, as well as hope for a woman’s future pregnancy efforts.
