Scientists at the National Institutes of Health state that risk increased if a woman and her partner drank more than two caffeinated beverages a day during the weeks leading up to conception.
They added that women who drank this during the first seven weeks of pregnancy were also more likely to miscarry.
The researchers compared lifestyle factors, including cigarette use, caffeinated beverage consumption and multivitamin use, among 344 couples with a singleton pregnancy from the weeks before they conceived through the seventh week of pregnancy.
A total of 98 of the 344 women had miscarriages and the authors found that if either parent drank two cups of coffee or more per day, they were more likely to have a miscarriage.
They claim risk increased by 74% if the woman had high levels of caffeine in their system while trying to conceive, and 73% if the man had high levels.
However, the authors of the study stressed that it was not designed to conclusively prove cause and effect.
The study lead author is Germaine Buck Louis, director of the Division of Intramural Population Health Research at the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.
