Question
Dear Ms.diane Cheryl
I have a medical abortion about 5 weeks ago, still no sign of my period. havent had the courage to go get a pregnancy test, and i have had safe sex. is this normal? when will i be getting my period?

Answer
Mayra,

You need to get a pregnancy test and you can get a free one at a pregnancy resource center. Go to http://www.optionline.org or call 1-800-395-HELP. Or http://www.heartbeatservices.org and click on the world wide directory.

You could be pregnant or just not had your period yet. Every woman is different so I can't tell you when you will be getting your period. Did you get a post abortion checkup? If you have any problems after abortion, mental, emotional, psychological or spiritual, please let me know as I provide free post abortion healing counseling.

Please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com and hope to hear from you soon. Oh, and ps. there is really no such thing as "safe" sex. No birth control method is 100% safe in preventing pregnancy or Sexually transmitted diseases.
