Research shows that men suffer after miscarriage, but not for as long as women

New research on the psychological impact of miscarriage on women and their partners shows that men suffer feelings of loss, physician sadness and helplessness but they recover more quickly than women, viagra dosage according to the English People's Daily Online. 

The research was carried out by Dr Grace Kong of Prince of Wales Hospital in Hong Kong who followed 83 couples for one year after a miscarriage. She and her colleagues used two tests to gauge levels of psychological distress in both men and women: a 12-item General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). None of the study participants had a history of mental illness.

Immediately after the miscarriage occurred, the researchers found, more than 40 percent of the men were suffering significant psychological distress, as measured by the GHQ-12. By three months, however, just 7 percent reported this level of distress, and at one year, 5 percent of the men did.

But among the women, 52 percent had significant distress immediately after miscarriage, over 20 percent did three months later, 14 percent did at six months, and 8 percent reported distress one year later.
