Miscarriage Risk Calculator
Estimate your pregnancy loss odds based on current gestational age, maternal age, and optional personal factors.
Miscarriage Risk Estimator
Enter your current gestational age and maternal age. Add optional factors for a more personalized estimate.
How This Miscarriage Risk Estimate Is Calculated
This miscarriage risk calculator starts from gestational-age baseline probabilities from large population studies, then adjusts that baseline by maternal age and optional factors you provide. The output gives an estimated probability of recognized pregnancy loss (typically through 20 weeks) and the complementary probability of ongoing pregnancy.
What the numbers mean
Estimated miscarriage risk = baseline week/day risk × factor multipliers
Baseline risk is highest in early weeks and generally declines quickly as pregnancy progresses. For example, commonly cited data show risk around 9.4% at 6 weeks, 4.2% at 7 weeks, and often around 1–2% after 8 weeks in many pregnancies.
Factors that can change risk
Maternal age strongly influences risk across the first trimester. Optional factors such as confirmed fetal heartbeat, bleeding/cramping symptoms, previous miscarriages, previous live birth history, and BMI can move your estimate up or down. A fetal heartbeat usually lowers risk; active bleeding or recurrent prior losses may raise it.
Important limitations
Any online risk score is probabilistic and cannot confirm or exclude miscarriage for an individual pregnancy. Ultrasound findings, serial hCG trends, exam findings, and clinician judgment remain essential. Use this as a context tool for discussion with your obstetric provider.
