Infertility and miscarriage can be incredibly difficult experiences, and can increase the risk of stroke in women. In this article, we’ll explore the link between infertility and stroke in more detail, and talk about some ways that you can reduce your risk of experiencing either condition.

What is infertility and miscarriage?

Infertility is a lack of pregnancy after trying to conceive for a period of time. Miscarriage is the termination of a pregnancy before it can be carried to term. When infertility and miscarriage are combined, the risk of stroke increases in women.

Studies have shown that infertility and miscarriage together increase the risk of stroke by up to 50%. This increased risk is because when fertility problems occur, there is an increase in the number of blood clots in the body. Blood clots are common causes of stroke.

If you are experiencing infertility or Miscarriage, be sure to talk to your doctor about your risks and what you can do to reduce them.

They found that women with an inability to get pregnant were almost three times as likely to have a stroke compared to women who were able to conceive. Women who experienced miscarriage were also more than four times as likely to have a stroke as those who did not experience a miscarriage.

How can you reduce the risk of stroke in women who have infertility or miscarry?

One potential way to reduce the risk of stroke in women who have infertility or miscarry is to take measures to improve your overall health.
