Pregnancy Risk After Condom Failure & Abortion: What to Know

Answer
Hi Lacey,

Thanks for your question. Yes, you can get pregnant. I don't know if you were supposed to have sex only 7 days after your abortion. Sometimes, you are recommended to wait longer. But I guess it's too late to worry about that now. The reason to wait is to let your body heal after your abortion. If you have any post abortion problems, such as emotional, psychological or spiritual, please let me know. I offer post abortion healing counseling.

Anyway, Yes you can get pregnant because no birth control method is 100% safe in preventing pregnancy. Well, let me know what happens. If you want to get a pregnancy test, you can get a free one at a pregnancy resource center. To find one, go to http://www.heartbeatservices.org and click on the globe in the upper right hand corner of the page. Or try http://www.optionline.org for a pregnancy center listing.

Thanks.
