Can drinking large amounts of liquor cause a miscarriage?

Yes, drinking large amounts of liquor can cause a miscarriage. Alcohol consumption during pregnancy can have serious effects on the developing fetus, including miscarriage, stillbirth, and fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD). FASD is a group of conditions that can affect a child's physical, mental, and behavioral development. Alcohol can cross the placenta and reach the fetus, where it can interfere with fetal development. Drinking large amounts of alcohol can increase the risk of miscarriage because it can damage the uterine lining and make it difficult for the fetus to implant. Additionally, alcohol can cause the blood vessels in the uterus to constrict, which can reduce oxygen and nutrient supply to the fetus.
