Can a simple hormone test predict miscarriage in breastfeeding moms?
NCT ID NCT07357922
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will measure progesterone levels in 150 pregnant women who are still breastfeeding to see if low levels are linked to threatened abortion (bleeding in early pregnancy). Researchers hope to find a way to identify women at higher risk of early pregnancy loss. The study is observational, meaning it only looks at existing data and does not test any treatment.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could help doctors better predict and prevent early pregnancy loss in women who conceive while breastfeeding.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only measures hormone levels and outcomes, so it cannot prove cause or lead directly to a new therapy.
