Correct Answer: TORCH infections
Description: SLE is associated with antiphospholipid syndrome (anti cardiolipin antibodies) and is known to cause recurrent aboions. RH incompatibility is a known cause for spontaneous aboion and may lead to recurrent aboions if it remains unrecognized. Syphilis has also lead to recurrent aboion. TORCH is thus the single best answer of exclusion.
