RhoGAM and Autism: Exploring a Potential Link - Expert Insights

Question
Hello.

In 1995 I was 16 and had an abortion without my parents knowing.  When the abortion was completed I was given a RhoGAM shot.  I remember a nurse telling me she was giving me this shot and "to never forget" I had it.  I was so young I really didnt know what she meant but I did not question her.  

Now, all these years later I have a 4 year old little girl - with autism.  Very mild.  I was told that RhoGAM shot can cause autism??? I really have no idea, I am just going off of what I heard.  But, I want to know, if a woman gets this shot after an abortion, would or could it affect a second pregnany?  

I am not sure if you can answer this or not, but I really do appreciate your time.  Thank you.

Dear Kristi-

  Thanks for your question. I apologize, but this is out of my expertise. But I did do a google search and found this:
