Question
hey, well i had my abortion on January and i haven't got my period i have read the information gave given me and it said that my period would be back between 4-6 weeks!!! and its not happening aim also taking birth control pills and him almost into my third pack!what should i do??? does it take longer ???
Hi Lovely,
Thanks for your question. I'm not a doctor so I always recommend that you ask your own physician about any health questions.
After an abortion, your hormones are not in balance and you have to get back to your regular cycle. Also, the birth control pills are hormonal and would also add to the irregularity of your period and cycle. If you don't start pretty soon, I would suggest that you ask your doctor about what's wrong.
If you have any problems with post abortion feelings, you can email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com because I do counseling with women that have problems after abortion.
Let me know what happens and if you start your period. Is it possible that you could be pregnant again? Write soon.
Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
