    Pregnancy after abortion
    A friend of mine had a surgical abortion at 11 weeks just over 2.5 weeks ago and had no bleeding afterwards, however, she had unprotected sex with her partner 3 days later and again 4 days later. The following day (5 days later) she had her period which lasted 2-3 days. She now wonders if there is a chance that she could be pregnant again as she has started to feel tiredness again and slight nausea. She did do a pregnancy test which showed as positive but has been told that this could happen due to the hormones still present from the previous pregnancy. She was however advised to take the test a week later again which should show a fainter positive result as the hormone levels should have dropped a little but the result is still as clear as the first test.

    Can you advise?

    Sounds like it's time to visit the doctor again. Also, if she is not ready to be a parent, she should be using some form of birth control. Abortion is not a form of birth control.

    I am pro choice but this woman is the type of woman that fuels the anti-abortion crowd. George Santayana said "Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it.". Didn't this slut learn from the one abortion??

    My advice to this woman is to go see her doctor, and get sterilized.
