Is there any chance that I could still be pregnant... has this ever happened to anyone?

    If you had an abortion then everything was pretty well cleaned out so there isn't much chance that you could be pregnant . There is considerable trauma during an abortion, and after. Your body has to adapt and settle into a new cycle. Just wait for normal menstruation to resume and try to relax.

    Absofreakinlutely! YOu are so unbelievably fertile after having a baby or abortion! Google this and you will find story after story. Birth control is SO inexpensive and well worth it. Be very careful. Oh and you may not be on your period. It may be Post Partum bleeding you're experiencing. Either way, you can get pregnant.

    There is a possibility of getting pregnant anytime you have sex. Be very careful, talk to your doctor and find a sutible form of birth control that is right for you.

    We could have an entire thread to discuss if it is really a abortoin if the baby is not alive and it is more of a D/C. But anyway, of course you can still become pregnant, if you are still having unprotected sex.

    And did the doctor not say something about not having sex for a period after the procedure ?

    If you are going to be having sex, you need to use some form of birth control if you do not wish to be prgnant

    I'm sorry to hear of your loss, I know from previous posts that you really want a baby. Having said that, the best chance for you to get pregnant and have a healthy baby is to wait for a period of at least 3 months after a D and C.

    As to your question, yes you can get pregnant when you have your period, especially after your body has been through a traumatic event like yours just has.

    If you still want a baby then please wait until your body is ready. Talk to you doctor.

    Thank you all so much!! Well its been a month since I had to have the D & C and I was bleeding for 2 weeks.. and then I just finally got my period on Friday! they said I would most likely get my period 4 weeks from the D&C but its been 5 weeks! That I got my period... they told me to wait at least a month to start having sex again! I just wasn't sure that it could be possible to get pregnant while on my period... but I guess anything is possible... but thanks for the advice everyone!!

    How long?
    As all of you guys no I had an abortion.. well a D&C.. I had my period already.. but for someone reason still having signs... how long should I wait to take a HPT after an abortion, miscarriage?? It has been now 6 weeks... so should my HCG levels have dropped by now..?

    I don't know why, mustang, you keep asking this question. A D&C cleans everything right out and you are so clean that you can get pregnant quite easily again. Please ask your doctor these questions as he is best to explain it to you.

    I have heard of a lot of people getting pregnant.. like 2 weeks after the procedure.. so that's y I ask..
  • Mar 13, 2008, 03:12 AM

    Yes that's very true. Your doctor should have told you that and precautions to take so that you would not have relations so soon after because the chances of pregnancy are increased after curretage (D&C). If you think you are pregnant get checked out by your doctor and don't rely on a home pregnancy test to find out.

    Could there be a possibility... that I could be pregnant again? And that a HPT could say negative... because I had taken 2 HPT.. they said negative but I was mainly checking to c if I had any HCG levels still in me but I guess I don't if they cam back negative!

    HCG levels can't be detected with a home pregnancy test. It is found with urine and blood tests.

    Most name brand hpt tests are pretty similar in their accuracy.

    Many now come in packs of 2 so that you can take both just to make sure.

    Some brands are e.p.t. first response, etc.
