Question
hi Dr,
10 days after taking a contraceptive injection , had unprotected  sex which resulted in pregnancy, i terminated it , a week later i had unprotected sex ,9 hours later i drank the morning after pill, what are the chances of me becoming pregnant

Answer
Hello, thanda hadzebe,

Please know that I am not a doctor. I am a medical researcher.

You are living dangerously, polluting your body with all these toxic drugs. As long as you are having sex, you are at risk for pregnancy, no matter what you do. If you absolutely don't want to get pregnant, you should stop having sex. Seriously! Don't think you can suddenly rely on "protection". It's not at all reliable. People promote it knowing there will be lots of failures, and they can make lots of money from doing abortions. This "information" gets all over the world, and it's a huge fraud.

Nobody can tell you what the chances are that you can become pregnant. When you take all those drugs, it also throws off your cycle, so that it isn't even possible to use fertility awareness to control the likelihood of getting pregnant. If you do get pregnant, please don't poison your body anymore. Surgical abortion is also very risky. Please take care of yourself and stop taking chances. You deserve better.

Expertise

I can help women with the consideration of their decision, and with resources, and I can share my own experiences as the mother of seven and grandmother of eleven. My approach is to show love and concern, and help women work through the issues, emotional, spiritual, practical. I also help women deal with boyfriend and family issues. I am not a doctor, but I have done extensive medical research, so I may be able to help with information. I am female. When you write, if you are or were pregnant, please tell me how far along you were or are, and if you have had an abortion, please tell me what kind. Thank you.

Experience

I have been working with women who are considering abortion for several years. I also work with women who have had abortions. Our family has also experienced adoption, so I can talk about that as well.

Education/Credentials
I am mostly self-taught. I also studied midwifery for awhile. I have spent years doing research on this topic. In fact, I have been doing research and working in this area since the early 1970's. I have been helping women online for a few years, under the guidance of a woman who was formally training in counseling.
