and i suspect i am having a miscarriage.

can i still get an abortion if i am bleeding ?

Answer
Hi, Kaylynn,

They won't care if you are bleeding or not. But why take a chance? Abortion is dangerous, and if you are having a miscarriage, it will take care of itself. Let it play itself out. Then go to a decent doctor (not an abortionist) and let him determine if the miscarriage is complete. If not, he can complete it. But there's no reason to put yourself at risk like that if you are having a miscarriage anyway. Don't worry about keeping the appointment. Call and cancel, or just don't go. If later on, you find out it's not a miscarriage, you still should be under a doctor's care, because bleeding like that isn't normal. I had a pregnancy like that. It lasted for four months, and then I lost the baby. But please do go to the doctor.

Stay safe!
