Hello Nikki, after an abortion a woman’s cycle or period does not go back to normal immediately.
I had an abortion on June 4th 2018. After the abortion I have not seen my menstrual flow till September 2018. pls I want 2 know if its normal or abnormal, because such have never happened 2 me.
Hi Tyna, If you haven’t gotten your period since you had an abortion I would contact your doctor. That is a long time to not get it. Generally you should have gotten your period within two months after having the abortion.
I am Juliet I had 9 abortions and took pills to prevent pregnancy, I got married since 2015 I had been trying to conception but no where… What could be wrong?
Hi Juliet, have you tried calculating when your fertile period is? Is you cycle relatively regular? If you have been trying to get pregnant since 2015 with no luck I would recommend both you and your partner seeing a fertility doctor to get tested to make sure that everything is working correctly for both of you. It could be you or it could be him why you are not getting pregnant. And just so you are aware, abortions will not affect your ability to get pregnant.
hi, have not seen my period for 39 days, could I be pregnant?
Hi i’m judith, am 26 years old. Please I had unprotected sex with my partner 3 days before my regular monthly flow. I want to know if there are any chances of getting pregnant? Thank you in anticipation
Hi Judith, if you then indeed got your period I wouldn’t worry and three days before your actual period you aren’t in your fertile timeframe, which means that you will not get pregnant.
Hi i had surgical abortion last may 26 2018 and had my menstruation back in june 29 2018 and my menstruation ended july 18 2018 so its for 20 days. I took birth pill july 18 2018 but had unprotected sex in july 20th until now i had no period.? Is it normal or Can it be result as im pregnant?
Hi Jenny, you had your period for 20 days? That’s excessive. Are you saying you took a plan B or you started your birth control pills? I would recommend waiting it out but also taking a pregnancy test. Good luck.
Hi I’m Vivian I have low blood is it safe to do abortion?
Hello sir!
I have taken the abortion pill on 11 july and had a bleeding till 25th july.
should i check with pregnancy kit
and also had a sex on 7th august
what i can expect
Hi Monika, are you having unprotected sex? Then you have to consider that depending on when you ovulate after your abortion you could get pregnant again. If you haven’t gotten your period within the next two weeks or so, take a pregnancy test. And if you are still not trying to get pregnant, try a reliable form of birth control.
Hi! I’m goodness I did abortion on the 3rd of July and now is four weeks past I have not seen my period, should I be worried?
Hello Goodness, your period should return soon.
I’m Laura I did my period on 14th/18th of July and I had sex on 25th of July. I used postinor 2 on the same day.pls can it result to pregnancy
Hello Laura, once an emergency pill was taken within the recommended time after unprotected sex then you should not get pregnant.
Even though you got postinor 2 immediately, you might have chance to get pregnant. It’s rarely but it happened to me once. So I suggest if you feel abnormal or if your period is late as usual do a home pregnant test.
Hello.. I was four weeks pregnant and then I had an abortion , which I took the drugs on the 10th of June and I had cramps,bleeding (which I saw things on my pad) and then the bleeding stopped on the 21st of June meaning it bled for almost two weeks .I did pregnancy test(blood) after that I was negative… a week later, I started having breast pain, my breast was paining me so much that I can’t even touch it myself. And also with high fever and weakness.. I did pregnancy test again and it was still negative.. but after 9 days, my breast stopped paining me, but I was still having fever( not high).. and until now I haven’t had my period.. it’s 4 weeks after my abortion and I haven’t seen my period.. I keep doing the pregnancy test even till now but it keeps on showing Negative.. what do you think pls…
Hello Jessie, your period might even take up to two months to return. It should return soon.

I had an abortion of 4weeks pregnancy last month which I bled for 5days and after 3 weeks I started feeling stomachache, heavy unirating and little pain in my nipple. It is normal, could it be menstruation symptoms or incomplete abortion?
Hi, could be either. Did you get your period?
I have my first period after an abortion and I started feeling like stomachache it is normal?
Hello Nikki, cramps with a period is quite normal.
I had surgical abortion on 8th june and had bleeding for a few days then. After that i didnt have periods till today 25th july.. Is this normal enough?
Hi Nargis, it’s quite possible that it could take up to 8 weeks for your period to return. With that being said, if you haven’t gotten your period yet, I would recommend your follow up appointment in order to determine that it was successful.
Hi I had a surgical abortion on 22nd may and did not have any bleeding after but I have not had my periods back since then it is nearly 8 wks now.
What should I do?
