Answer
Dear Allie,
better see you doctor at once. No panic but something must be wrong.,
You did not say when the abortion was.
So I do not know if you can be pregnant again. Sorry but some more exams should be done, among which an ultrasound for sure,
Good luck, and do not wait !
Bye for now,
Dr Shan
