Abortion/Pregnancy

Question
I had an abortion on February 3rd, and had unprotected sex two weeks later. It is now a month later and I haven't gotten my period. My breats are tender I have been throwing up but I took a pregnancy test and it came back negative. I have also been cramping. I also checked my breats and breast milk came out. What are the posbilities of me becoming pregnant again?

Answer
Hi dear Elizabeth,
Unprotected sex  (why f.h.s.??) 2 weeks after an abortion is the best time to become pregnant again. So probably the pregtest was false neagtive. Now if you are not pregnant, give yourself a rest for half a year.
Only protected sex.
Then your chances are normal again as before, unless you had an infection. But I think you have not as there are no signs of it.
take care, better care !
