Answer
Hello, subhangi mukherjee,

I was able to understand only part of your message. Can you explain more? How old are you? How much do you weigh? How tall are you? Are you telling me in pounds or kilograms? What do you mean by you don't have thyroid and sugar?

Surgical abortion sometimes makes a woman unable to have a baby. About one woman out of ten will never become pregnant again. Unfortunately, in that case, there is probably nothing you can do about it. If you can see a doctor, you should. Ask him the same questions. Even if you do become pregnant, there are possible complications. You need the care of a good doctor anyway.

If you simply cannot have a baby, you should think about adopting a baby. There are many babies who need a good mother.

That's about all I can tell you right now. If you answer my questions, I may be able to tell you more. Take care.

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.
