Dr. Kliman joins guest host Flora Lichtman to talk about his research, and the importance of studying the placenta as a way to better understand what leads to miscarriage and stillbirth.

On this episode of the Reproductive Sciences podcast, Dr. Shangaris meets with Harvey J. Kliman, MD, PhD (Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences at Yale University School of Medicine) to discuss the recently published paper titled "Placental Pathology Findings in Unexplained Pregnancy Losses."

Yale researchers published a study last month revealing that over 90 percent of unaccounted pregnancy losses can be explained by placental examination.

New Haven, Conn. — Yale researchers have shown that placental examination resulted in the accurate pathologic determination of more than 90% of previously unexplained pregnancy losses, a discovery that they say may inform pregnancy care going forward.

Yale researchers show that placental examination could help determine the cause of more than 90% of previously unexplained pregnancy losses.

I talk with Dr Harvey Kliman about his research and medical opinion when it comes to the placenta, pregnancy loss/stillbirth, & recurring pregnancy loss. He is a research Scientist in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences at the Yale University of Medicine and the Director of the Reproductive and Placental Research Unit with the following Research Interests: Pregnancy Complications and losses, Autistic Disorder, Endometrium, and Infertility.

Implantation failure and recurrent miscarriage is rampant. And unfortunately, most patients are left without answers or direction. In today’s episode, I interview Dr. Harvey Kliman MD, PhD, creator of the EFT test, otherwise known as the Endometrial Function Test.
