In certain ladies, abortion takes place too easily—sometimes even without any apparent cause, or in some abortion is possible with even the slightest cause. Some women are known to abort habitually, i.e. during each pregnancy abortion is a regular phenomenon. In some ladies, it can occur accidentally or due to some fall, injury, shock or any other cause.
Try to pre-empt the known causes, well before the anticipated period of abortion. It is not easy to determine in a primipara as to when she might abort, but in case of repeated and habitual abortions, causes are generally well known and timing is also known. Hence, take steps before the tragedy actually takes place. In general, the detailed causes should be pre-empted by timely protective measures. In certain ladies, the uterus and its muscles are too weak to bear a child’s burdensome weight. If necessary, surgical recourse may be had, if life is threatened. First priority should be to save the mother’s life at any cost
