Everybody is scaring me that it would be harmful for my body and that i should definitely have this baby because a second abortion is not safe...i really need the answer because i already made an  appointment but im so scared.

Answer
Dear E,
The most wonderful thing about the Aspiration Abortion method and the Abortion Pill is that they do not cause risks for future pregnancies.  The Aspiration Procedure and the Abortion Pill are the safest early abortion methods.  They are both nonsurgical methods, and allow the uterus to naturally release the early pregnancy lining (which is similar to a heavy period).  Surgical abortion is extremely safe, and there is virtually no risk from getting repeat surgical abortions.  However, if you are able to get an Aspiration procedure or the abortion pill, they are the safest methods, since they do not utilize scraping, electric suction, or general anesthesia.  

I am a major promoter of these two methods.  You will find more on my website at: http://www.earlyabortionoptions.com  Make sure to check out the sections on "Compare your Options" "Nonsurgical Abortion" and the "Aspiration Procedure."  I think you will find the information reassuring.

Good luck with your decision,
Doctor Joan
