📌 According to recent medical guidelines (WHO & ACOG):

✅ Physically:

Ovulation can occur as early as 2–4 weeks after a miscarriage.

There is NO medical evidence that waiting several months improves pregnancy outcomes in uncomplicated cases.

Studies show that women who conceive within the first 6 months after a miscarriage do NOT have higher risks of:

• Recurrent miscarriage

• Preterm birth

• Pregnancy complications

In fact, some studies suggest equal or even better outcomes.

⚠️ When waiting is recommended:

• If there was heavy bleeding or infection

• After a molar pregnancy

• After surgical complications

• If the miscarriage was due to an underlying medical condition that needs treatment

• If the woman is not emotionally ready

🩺 Practical medical advice:

• Wait until bleeding has completely stopped

• At least one normal menstrual cycle is helpful for accurate pregnancy dating (but not mandatory)

• Start folic acid before trying again

• Ensure medical follow-up if the miscarriage was recurrent or complicated

💙 Emotional readiness matters:

Healing is not only physical. Grief, anxiety, and fear are normal after miscarriage. There is no “right time” — only the time that feels right for the woman and her family.

✨ Key message:

Pregnancy after miscarriage is often safe once the body has recovered, but timing should always be individualized.
