Question
I terminated my pregnancy at exactly 11 weeks and a day and was also taking treatment for a vaginal fungal infection. I was expecting to bleed after the procedure but i did not. It has been 3 days since the abortion and i was asking if this is normal? and could the infection have anything to do with me not bleeding?

Answer
Please get a checkup or at least call and see what they say. I am worried about you and please let me know what happens. You can email me at CHERYL51@aol.com

I think it is most likely that you should be bleeding. Did the abortion place tell you to come in for a post abortion checkup? Please email me soon.
