  1. it depends on how the procedure went. if it went perfectly then your fine as people have D&C for a miscarriage which is the same procedure as an abortion....but if something happened, it may of damaged your uterus but i highly doubt it. check with an obgyn to make sure everything is okay. good luck with the future hun.


  2. I got pregnant a month after having an abortion at 5 weeks. I had my regular period and then got pregnant the next time I ovulated.  Some women may have fertility problems but it's actually rare for a single abortion to cause infertility.  I know someone who (sadly) has had like 7 abortions, so I don't know if she would ever have problems if she wanted more kids but my experience is no.

  3. no

  4. No, not if you only had that one.

  5. No it shouldnt make it harder to get pregnant :)

  6. No , not at all. I had one also when I was 16. and I have a healthy baby boy. If it really bothers u, do more research on the topic, or talk to your Dr about it.  

  7. I've known people to have an abortion and be pregnant again within months so no it doesn't make it harder.

  8. I don't think it creates difficulties, because my sis had an abortion and a few years later wanted a baby, and had no trouble getting pregnant.

    But she has a lot of problems down there, [infections and stuff] and always has to go to the OBGYN. Hopefully you don't have those problems.

  9. No I dont think it will be hard just please dont get another abortion.

  10. No, the CDC has found that abortions do not pose a measurable risk to a woman's future childbearing ability.

    Abortion isn't an easy decision, and people shouldn't assume it was made frivolously. It's cruel to hope that a person couldn't ever get pregnant again after an abortion.  

  11. My sister had more than one abortion years ago when she was young. She then got pregnant and was about 3 months along and lost her baby and now she's married and is afraid she can't have children. But she had multiple abortions. I'm sure that if you had one, it *may* cause problems with getting pregnant, but I doubt it. I think you'll be okay to try. If you're really worried about, I'd say something to my obgyn and see what he/she thinks, so if there are any risks you can be prepared. Good luck!

  12. Well contrary to what they say, I think that it will be hard because when you make that bond with your child after its birth you will think back about how you had another child aborted well maybe its just me but that's my theory....  

  13. Unless you were raped, I have to say, I really hope you can't get pregnant again.

  14. i don't wanna judge u or anyone who ever had abortion cz u don't know that person what she was goin through that time or may be too young to decide that she should abort or not,anyways i don't think there should be a problem but sometimes it creates problem sometimes means sometimes not all the time and i know someone who had D&C cz of miscarriage and she got pregnant again and she is doing fine but u kno when i had a miscarriage dr suggest me to do natural ways which was v painful mentally and physically and not to do D&C as it creates trouble to getting pregnant in the future but its ur luck hun

    I WISH U BEST OF LUCK AND BE CARFULL WHEN U MAKE This DECISIONSION CZ U DO NOT WANA PLAY WITH UR BABY,s LIFE U DO NOT WANA KILL HIM SO JUS BECAREFULL AND MAY GOD GIVE U AS MUCH BABIES AS U WANT.

  15. I think "back in the day" abortions weren't as safe as they are today. Not that they're 100% safe at any time, but yeah. I think you should be fine :) Good luck!

  16. my aunt had one then it cost her almost $250,000 to have one but you dont deserve one

  17. Shouldn't have a problem... My best friend had an abortion and since then has had two children. But she now has incompetent cervix due to scaring so be careful and be sure to tell your Dr. you had one.

  18. It shouldn't be but make sure u want kids this time.

  19. No it wont, I've had 4 for my own reasons, as you people know birth control isn't 100% so f off if you want to judge me for it.

    And now I have a daughter 1 year and am about to have a son.

  20. No, I know someone who had one and a couple months later got pregnant again (yeah, I don't know y...u'd think she would have learned about safe s*x)

  21. Nope.

  22. No i don't think you would have problems getting pregnant again if anything else it would be easier. My best friend had a child then soon after she had him 3 or 4 months later she got pregnant again and she had like 2 or 3 abortions within a 2 year period, soon as she had that last one she  got pregnant again but she decided to keep it and now she has a healthy 7 month old girl who is just fine. she had no complications or nothing.

    But i think its when you have a miscarriage that you may have problems with Ive seen many woman who've had a miscarriage and every time they got (or maybe the 1st or 2nd try's) pregnant they kept miscarrying.

  23. no  should be fine

  24. I hope so.
