Abstract
Spontaneous abortion, or miscarriage, is a common and heartbreaking event experienced by many women worldwide. Oxidative stress has been suggested as one of the potential mechanisms leading to spontaneous abortion. Vitamin C and vitamin E have long been recognized for their antioxidant properties and their ability to reduce oxidative stress. This essay explores the role of vitamin C and vitamin E in decreasing oxidative stress in patients with spontaneous abortion. The methods, results, and implications of studies investigating this topic are discussed, culminating in a conclusion regarding the potential benefits of these vitamins in the prevention and management of spontaneous abortion
