Sorry to hear that. What were their age ranges? It's well known that age is the biggest influence in miscarriage chance.

    I'm sure there are more sources, I"m just lazy today.

It’s suggested that high levels of these chemicals can cause impaired female reproduction or an increased chance of miscarriage. While debatable, some research shows that endocrine disruptors can cause higher chances of developing endometriosis in females.
