The loss was both physically and psychologically traumatic… some healthcare providers added to that trauma’: Women’s experiences of miscarriage.

This study explored the psychological distress experienced by 15 women affected by miscarriage, as well as the perceived support provided by healthcare professionals. Women made recommendations to improve the service of healthcare providers, including referral to a psychologist, and offering ongoing follow-up after their miscarriage to assist when needed, with managing their distress.
