Light Period After Abortion: Could This Be Pregnancy?

Question
Hi, I have a question. I had an abortion on sept.30. I had unpected sex after and I got my period on nov.1 and I only had my period for two days only and it wasn't heavy. Could I be pregnant?

Answer
Dear Iris,
It is possible that you are pregnant. Sometimes you can get spotting or bleeding with early pregnancy.  This can be confused with a period.   The easiest thing to do is to take a pregnancy test.  You can get them at your local pharmacy.  Make sure to get the test that has two lines, not the digital kind.  The test should be accurate by now.  If it is negative, you can be reassured that you are not pregnant, and that you just had a light period.
I hope this is helpful,
Doctor Joan
