If you have a miscarriage, is it the hormone levels or the idea that cuases the loss and depression?

Could a woman be pregnant, not know it yet, miscarry very early and still go through the mood swings and loss and depression as a woman who knew she was pregnant would?

I think it must be the idea, I went through a miscarriage which I didn’t find out about until after the fact. I’d suspected I was pregnant, yet tests prior to my period (which was a few days late) were all negative. For some reason, I took a test after my period came and went, and it came up positive. A couple of doctor’s visits and an emotional rollercoaster ride later, an early miscarriage was confirmed. It was a hellish time for me, and I sometimes wish I’d never taken that stupid pregnancy test. I think I would likely have been none the wiser.
I think it’s the idea as well, I had an early M/C, I wasn’t late for my period just thought I should test cause I was trying, so it came out positive, only to have my “period” aka early m/c happen the next day! If I hadn’t taken the test, I would have NEVER known and it would have been just mistaken for a heavy period. It sucks and sometimes I regret taken that darn test, it’s just the thought of knowing you WERE pregnant, but not anymore, and no baby either =(
