Hi I am a 20 year old female. I got an surgical abortion on June 12 of this year. I blead for about 1 1/2 weeks and then stopped. I started to have sexual intercourse about two weeks after the procedure. I was supposed to begin using birth control pills but never did (they caused terrable migraines) and i had gotten pregnant while on the shot. So i decided after the abortion to turn to condoms. Well anyway I know it wasnt the smartest decision but there were a couple times after that that i did not use a condom and my boyfriend had ejaculated in me. After that there were two times that I spotted and that was on July 4 and July 13. It has now been 4 weeks since the procedure and still no period. I wanted to know can I be preganat agian and how possible is it. Thankyou for reading and i hope to hear back soon.
Hi Audri, Thanks for sharing… It is still possible that you will still get pregnant. To make sure, you better visit your doctor now for check up, so that, you will know right away your condition.
Hi I’m Angie, I have a rheaumatic heart disease and my doctor said pregnancy or child birth will put my life in danger. Now it’s been a week that i missed my period and i had home pregnancy test and it says positive. Would it be very dangerous for me to have an abortion? More dangerous than Child birth? And would any gynecologist perform abortion to me since it can be consider as therapeutic? Do you know someone who could help me?
Thank you and hope to hear a reply from you ASAP
I have a few questions. My last menstrual period was Sept 8 2009. I am pregnant and went to the Dr. they measured my hormone level and said I was about 5 weeks pregnant. and my ultrasound says close to that. Does the 5 weeks include conception or would I have conceieved the week before. I am worried about this because I had unprotected sex with two people one who I have had sex with on a regular basis and the other one was a one time thing. Sept 27th was the time that I had sex with the person who it was only one time. I am trying to figure this out or have a better idea. I am super embrassed about this.
