Frequently Asked Questions

As a physician practicing for over 20 years, I have encountered countless questions and have heard infinite concerns from mothers and their families about everything from smoking during pregnancy to what sort of music may or may not be harmful to the development of a baby’s ears. Hopefully, going through this list will ease some of your worries, or in the least inform you as to what you should and should not be concerned about. - Alexander D. Kofinas, MD

I have lost 3 pregnancies. Am I considered a habitual aborter?
The answer is yes. Even 2 losses should be enough to trigger proper investigation in an effort to avoid subsequent losses. Also, in women older than 35, even one pregnancy loss is a good enough reason to be evaluated for possible preventable causes, since the risk for a second pregnancy loss in such women is almost 35%. This is very common today and proper consultation should be requested.
