hello
welcome to XXXXXXX

Your wife who is 38 had a miscarriage. its not uncommon to see women above 35 to have this problem

there are many reasons for the abortion, most common being genetic problem in the fetus

your wife can start with pre pregnancy vitamins and XXXXXXX a physcian or a gynaecologist in your area. I personally am not aware of anyone in your locality

wish you all the best
