Strategies for Addressing Recurrent Pregnancy Loss

Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), defined as two or more pregnancy losses before 20 weeks’ gestation, affects 1 5% of couples and presents complex clinical and emotional challenges. Up to half of RPL cases remain unexplained, heightening patient distress and diagnostic uncertainty. Patients and families often lack comprehensive support, while obstetricians face difficulties in diagnosis, communication, and resource limitations. Medical education insufficiently prepares providers for these challenges. This virtual symposium provides targeted sessions focused on improving clinical knowledge, enhancing empathetic communication, promoting provider well-being, and advancing integrated, interprofessional care models to better support patients, families, and clinicians managing RPL.
