There really is no way to sugarcoat what happens during a miscarriage. Sure, everyone knows of the basics of what happens, technically. But beyond the physical manifestation of a miscarriage, add in the stress, grief, and emotions, and it can be, understandably, complex and confusing. And this can undoubtedly have an impact on your relationship.

In relationships where one or both partners have experienced a miscarriage or pregnancy loss, common concerns about sexual satisfaction can include changes in physical and emotional intimacy, fear of triggering emotional pain, concerns about trying to conceive again, and shifts in communication patterns around sensitive topics. These experiences can impact how partners connect intimately, leading to a need for understanding, patience, and open communication to address these concerns.
