ABSTRACT This study aimed to analyze the scientific production from Jan 2006 to Mar 2021 regarding the repercussions of pregnancy loss on conjugality and parenthood. It is a systematic review carried out in Pubmed, PsycNET, and Portal BVS database through previously established descriptors, resulting in 16 eligible studies. We found contrasting results regarding repercussions in parenthood, suggesting the need to investigate protective factors also. Pregnancy loss shows as a risk for marital relationships, but marital communication emerged as a possible protection factor that deserves further investigation. Future research should adopt qualitative and mixed methods, include men’s perspectives, and evaluate marital and family interventions.
