Question
Hi, i asked a question before, I can't remeber if it was to you or someone else.
But this was it anyway..
I had an abortion nearly 4 months ago, and im still bleeding. It seems to be getting heavier, especially in the mornings. Is this normal? At first it wasnt bleeding much at all, but now its nearly like a period, but it doesnt stop. Im on the pill aswell because my doctor recomended i go on when i was at the hospital. Is this all normal? Or should i go to the doctor?

it wouldnt let me post a follow up, so heres my next question, If i dont have a fever, or any abdominal pains, just bleeding and clotting, what, in your experience could it be?
I cant afford to go to the doctors as i quit my job and i dont want to go unless i absolutely have to.
I know its a long time to be bleeding, but is there any chance it could slowly stop?

Answer
Hi Ketzia,

I found your question in the question pool at allexperts.com
I'm not sure who you asked your question to, but when a question is in the pool, it means that person could not answer for some reason. Then I found the question. Even though I know your question was about 3 weeks ago, I still want to check on you and see how things are going. Are you still bleeding? Please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com and let me know. If you are, you really need to go to the doctor. I know you don't have insurance but this is really important, You can't keep bleeding without having consequences and side effects. Please let me know.
Thanks.
