Types of pregnancy loss

Miscarriage is the most common form of pregnancy loss, affecting around one in four pregnancies.

You’ll find lots of information about miscarriage on this website, along with links to relevant leaflets.  You can see all our leaflets here.

But we also provide information and support on two less common kinds of pregnancy loss: ectopic pregnancy and molar pregnancy.

Pregnancy loss from 24 weeks onwards is referred to as stillbirth.  You’ll find more information  about stillbirth here.
