Question
Hello MS. Diane Cheryl,
I had a Medical Abortion on March 3. Everything went according to plan. I checked back with my Gyno one week later and said the pregnancy was successfully terminated. I only have some clots left back and she said that will pass out in the next few weeks. She also said to check back with her after my next period.

I was wondering long how after a medical abortion can you masturbate? I know you are not suppose to insert anything into your vagina for a few weeks but what about clitoral stimulation?

I am currently experiencing moderate pain in my lower left pelvic region? Does that have anything to do with the abortion? I only started to experience today March 20. What do u think?

Thanks in advance.

Answer
Cris,

You might have something wrong and you need to check with your doctor again. Tell her about the pain you are having. It might be serious. And I usually don't recommend masturbation at all so I can't advise you on that. Please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com and let me know what happens.I'm concerned about you.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
