Question
Hi i live in england and im nearly 24 and on the 23rd dec 09 i had a surgical termination, 2 weeks ago to this day! I stopped bleeding the next day and 3-4 days later i had unprotected sex about 3 times in that week,and was on antibiotics for the week from when i first went for the operation to help cut out getting an infection. I started spotting a tiny bit since i had intercourse, then exactly 1 week later i started taking the pill which has kind of stopped the spotting, So could i be pregnant again? i know now i really want a baby, but i know like your pervious questions its pointless doing a pregnancy test yet as it will show that i still am, so could i be pregnant And how will i know if i am, if the pill ive started takin dont stop for a break ???

Answer
Hi Natasha,
The dates confuse me.
You had your abortion december 23rd.
2 weeks ago to this day! you stopped bleeding the next day .
What date is that supposed to be?
The first month the contraceptive pill is not absolutely safe.
Remember that after an abortion the next ovulation normally is about 12 days later.
So ± jan 4th. ??
At what days you had sex ? Around jan 4 th which is to-day ?
Please come back to me with clearer data.
