Main Article Content
Abstract
This study is designed to evaluate the relationship between Activin -A and the incidence of recurrent and single abortion. The study also included the Estimate of steroid hormones levels (FSH, LH and progesterone concentration through the abortion and normal pregnancy. The work performed through using 90 blood samples were taken from aborted and normal pregnant women their range ages between (15-45) years, attended Azadi teaching hospital in Kirkuk and general hospital of Kirkuk and some private medical clincs during the period from 1st of September (2012) to end of march (2013)
Results revealed a significant increase in the concentration of Activin A ,FSH in the group of recurrent and single aborted women in comparison with control group. There was a significant decrease the levels of progesterone and in the group recurrent and single aborted women in comparison with control group .
