Causes of Fetal Arrest
Disease description:
Never did I expect that a situation of embryonic arrest would happen to me. I would like to ask the doctor, what are the causes of embryonic arrest?
Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Zhao Xiaodong
The causes of fetal arrest are complex and diverse, mainly including the following aspects:
1. Genetic factors: Chromosomal abnormalities in the embryo are the primary cause of fetal arrest.
2. Maternal factors: Endocrine disorders, uterine abnormalities, systemic diseases, or immune dysfunction in the pregnant woman may all lead to fetal arrest.
3. Environmental factors: Prolonged exposure to harmful substances (such as chemicals, radioactive materials, etc.), air pollution, and unhealthy lifestyle habits (such as smoking and drinking) may adversely affect fetal development, leading to fetal arrest.
4. Sperm-related issues: Poor sperm quality and chromosomal abnormalities may also affect the normal development of the fertilized egg, thereby causing fetal arrest.
