Post-Abortion Pregnancy: Risks and What to Expect After an Abortion

Question
Recently, I made a major decision in my life I had an abortion for the 4 time and it was one of those things that I didn't want to go through but everyone was pressuring me in to doing it. I was 8 weeks when I had the abortion. Three weeks later I started having sex unprotected sex is it possible that I could or might be pregnant again. During the time after the abortion I didn't have or seen a period, since then.

Answer
Dear Sue,

Thanks for your question. It's possible that you could be pregnant but it might also just be hormones. It's hard to tell but you could call 1-800-395-HELP or go to http://www.optionline.org

Sincerely,
