<h4>Purpose</h4>To estimate the risk of spontaneous abortion after use of antidepressant medication during pregnancy.<h4>Methods</h4>From the Danish Medical Birth Registry and the Danish National Hospital Registry, we identified all pregnancies leading to in- or outpatient contacts in Denmark from February 1997 to December 2008.
