Answer
Hi Sandra,

Please check with your personal physician, I'm not a medical doctor. When you have an abortion, it changes your monthly cycle for a period of time. Did you have your post abortion checkup? That's very important to be checked. When you have an abortion, you could be abnormal for a few weeks or months. Sometimes your body still thinks you are pregnant. If you want, you could get a pregnancy test. Go to http://www.optionline.org or call 1-800-395-HELP to find a pregnancy testing center in your area. They are free and volunteers staff the centers to help you. PLease email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com and tell me what happens.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
