Since the bleeding ended it been 7 weeks already.. I would like to know if that's normal that I haven't had my period?? Or should I be concerned about it cause I'm kinda scared.. This is my first abortion..

Answer
Hi Lucy,

Sometimes a woman won't have a period for a time after an abortion. You can ask your doctor about it or get a checkup. Are you thinking that perhaps your are pregnant again? Have you had sex since the abortion in which you could have gotten pregnant again? Please let me know more so I can advise you. You can email me privately at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com so we can talk more. Have you had any emotional or psychological side effects from the abortion? If so, I can help with that, too.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
