Medical history:
General medical history: major
diagnoses, any chronic medications. If you know
your own birthweight, and whether you were delivered
at term or before term, please share that as well.
Reproductive
history:
List your pregnancies in order, and tell us how
long they last after your missed period, and how
loss was diagnosed (by your bleeding or other symptoms?
by ultrasound without you knowing anything was wrong?),
and whether you miscarried naturally or with a D&C.
If your pregnancy delivered a child, please give
us any complications diagnosed during pregnancy
(gestational diabetes? preeclampsia?), your child's
birth weight, and at how many weeks gestation you
were delivered.
Family
history:
We are particularly interested in high blood pressure,
heart attack, stroke, and diabetes, and especially
if such events have happened in you or your husband's
parents, aunts/uncles, siblings. In men we are interested
in diagnoses made before age 55; in women, diagnoses
made before age 65.
