Answer
Hi Lisette

It sounds like you have been through a rough time. Did the doctor say you had an infection that caused the excessive bleeding and clots?


Abortion rarely causes infertility but sometimes a bad infection can make it harder for a women to fall pregnant. Another thing is your body has gone through alot and maybe still needs time to fully recover.

I would, if I were in your shoes, make an appointment with the doctor that treated you when you were bleeding and ask if that would cause you to not fall pregnant. If he says no then keep trying, perhaps get a kit from the chemist so you can work out your most fertile days.


I think it is unlikely that an abortion would have made you infertile but as I am not a medical doctor I cannot say for sure.

Good luck Lisette, hope you conceive soon and take care, vanessa
