Do multiple miscarriages really mean infertility? And the answer is not quite correct. Remember infertility really, the definition
of it, is not being able to become pregnant. Unfortunately when people have multiple miscarriages, that is the inability to maintain a pregnancy.
And there are a number of reasons why that happens. Usually in the first three months, it's usually because of chromosomal abnormalities.
Meaning that, either the egg is a little bit more mature, or even the sperm is more mature. Also the shape of the uterus can also
lead to miscarriages as well. Going to your physician and trying to find out what it is, is very very important.
