Recurrent pregnancy losses (RPLs) are seen in up to 15-20% of all clinically recognized pregnancies, 1-2% of women in general population. Repeated losses are seen in 5-10% of women. The prevalence of chromosomal rearrangements is 6.65% in couples with repeated pregnancy losses. Two to 4% of RPL are associated with parental balanced reciprocal and Robertsonian translocations.
