Question

Will chromosome abnormalities always lead to miscarriage?

Answer

Chromosome abnormalities can lead to miscarriage, but the risk of miscarriage depends on the type and severity of the abnormality. For example, embryos with tetraploid chromosome abnormalities typically have a 100% miscarriage rate, while those with singleton chromosomal abnormalities have a higher risk of miscarriage. However, not all chromosome abnormalities result in miscarriage; some may not present with clinical symptoms or may only cause minor health issues.
