Question
I had an abortion april 9 2008, and i was stupid and had sex yesterday, when i have 5 days left till my 2 week no sex period is up, and my stupid boyfriend came inside me a little bit, and im freaking out because now im having cramps and bloating, am i infected? should i go to my doctor right away?

Answer
Hi Sarah,

Hope you are doing ok. You should be having your post abortion checkup soon so hope you are not infected. It's very important to wait until you get the ok for sexual relations and hopefully, you will be checked for infections or any abnormalities. Let me know if you have any further problems, especially emotional or psychological.
My email address is DCHERYL51@yahoo.com so hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,
