    Radiation
    I was 8 weeks pregnant at the hospital and I was in the same room as two other patients. One of them had to get a ctscan and they did it in the same room. Could the radiation be the cause of why I lost my babies?

    From what I've read the risk with CT scans and pregnancy is the dye used during the scan. Since you didn't actually have the scan, it's unlikely that just being in the same room caused your miscarriage.

    Sadly there's really no way to know 100% what the cause of your miscarriage was, but I found nothing to support that being in the room where a CT scan was done was the cause of this.

    Sorry for your loss.
