About

Dr. Carolyn R. Jaslow is a leading authority on recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), with a particular focus on the anatomical and surgical dimensions of this complex condition. Her research has fundamentally advanced the understanding of how congenital uterine malformations—such as septate, bicornuate, and unicornuate uteri—as well as acquired factors like fibroids and polyps, contribute to RPL. In her landmark 2015 paper, "Minimally Invasive Surgical Options for Congenital and Acquired Uterine Factors Associated with Recurrent Pregnancy Loss," Dr. Jaslow synthesized the evidence for hysteroscopic and laparoscopic interventions, providing a critical framework for clinicians. This work, cited over 30 times, remains a cornerstone for practitioners seeking to optimize surgical outcomes for patients with anatomic causes of RPL. Beyond this, Dr. Jaslow has contributed to the broader literature on RPL etiology, including immunologic and endocrinologic factors, and her systematic reviews have helped shape clinical guidelines. Her impact is evident in the continued reliance on her research by reproductive surgeons and fertility specialists worldwide, making her a pivotal figure in improving pregnancy outcomes for those with recurrent losses.
