I am trying to become pregnant. I have been pregnant 4 yrs ago. I took the abortion pill when I was about 7 week pregnant.No complication. Would my doctor who is a very close relative find out during if I do not tell her? I really want to keep my past as a secret.

I'm guessing she will be able to tell that this isn't your first pregnancy (whenever you do become pregnant). But we'll have to wait for our experts to get a definite answer, they'll know better than I will.

What I wanted to say though was how important it is to be honest with your doctor. For example, depending on your blood type and your partner(s) blood types, you might have to get a shot for this pregnancy that you didn't have to for your first. She might not be able to properly treat you though if you don't tell her everything. I really do believe it's in your best interest to be honest with your doctor. She should be used to her patients telling her personal things.

Yes, she will be able to tell if you were pregnant before when she does the initial exam.

With a woman who has never been pregnant the cervix will be soft, shiny and pink. A woman who has been pregnant will have a "dimple" on the cervix.
