Question
After having an abortion, does it affect your future pregnancies. Is their a possibility that their will be any defects on baby when it's born? Thank you ....
Hi Gale,
Thanks for your question. I'm not a medical professional so you can ask your doctor this question. But I have been doing some research on this subject and I have found some sources that say that abortion could affect future pregnancies. One source is http://www.afterabortion.info and look up "research". I'll look up some other sources if you want to email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com and I will send those to you. I'm not sure about the defects on baby so will look that up too. Talk later.
