Q After repeated miscarriages, my stress and anxiety are overwhelming. Does my mental state affect miscarriage?
A Chronic stress and anxiety can disturb the autonomic nervous system and hormonal axis, indirectly affecting uterine blood flow and the implantation environment. The psychological pain itself also deserves acknowledgment, and combining emotional support with physical recovery is helpful.
Detailed Answer
Recurrent miscarriage involves not only physical injury but also severe psychological pain. Chronic stress raises cortisol secretion, disturbing the autonomic nervous system and reproductive hormone balance and affecting uterine blood flow. Therefore, finding emotional stability is itself a part of recovery and preparation for the next pregnancy. If needed, we recommend combining psychological counseling and support groups.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
In Korean medicine, the grief and anxiety of repeated loss are seen as creating Liver qi stagnation (gan-ul), which blocks the flow of qi and blood to the uterus. At Dongjedang, through treatment that releases stagnated qi and reinforces Kidney deficiency, we aim to promote both physical recovery and peace of mind together.
