Answer
Hi Aminata,

Your question was in the question pool and I just found it. It seems that whoever you asked the question to was not able to answer for some reason. They may not be an expert anymore, I don't know. I will try to answer for you. I would recommend that you see your doctor because it is not good to not have a period for 5 weeks and the pains. This concerns me. Did you go back to the clinic to have your post abortion checkup? I would recommend that you go to a different doctor to get an opinion. Or you could go to a pregnancy resource center to have a free pregnancy test. Go to http://www.optionline.org or call 1-800-395-HELP. Or if not in U.S. then go to http://www.heartbeatinternational.org/worldwide_directory.asp
Please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com and we can talk more about this.
