Chemical pregnancy is a very early miscarriage. This is the term used for a pregnancy that is terminated even before a heartbeat could be seen in an ultrasound. |

So sometimes this sorts of pregnancies are not detected at all unless you test very early, right? |

Chemical pregnancy or very early miscarriage is very common among women. About 60% of women experience this without them knowing that they were pregnant in the first place. A chemical pregnancy can't be prevented. However, a doctor should be able to treat you so it lessens the chance of it occurring again. |

Thanks a bunch for explaining. I though it was a fancy term for miscarriage, but I guess there is more to that. |

I wonder where they got the name for it. So if I understood right, women who have chemical pregnancy are those who are most likely infertile? |
