| Abstract | ||
| This study aimed to investigate the outcome of pregnancy in a rural community in Egypt. Pregnancies were diagnosed as early as possible by an immunological test, and were followed until the pregnancies ended. The study showed that there was an increasing abortion ratio in women younger than 20 years old and those with shorter interpregnancy intervals. There was an increasing fetal death rate in increasing orders of pregnancy and in older women. | ||
