Post-Abortion Sex & Birth Control: What to Do?


Question
Hello, I had a abortion two weeks and three days ago. I had unprotected sex after the two weeks. But i just started the birth control after my procedure. Should i take the plan b to be on the safe side. And i have been having little red blood spotting is this normal.

Answer
Hi Jennifer,
Why unprotected sex in the first place....
Yes, the plan B is advisable.
10 days after the abortion you can be pregnant again already.
Bleeding after an abortion is irregular and unpredictable. No worry.
Take care : There are no safe days before your periods are regular again.
Bests,
