Patient's question:
Doctor, this is the situation. Since I'm not ready to have children yet, I had an abortion about two and a half months ago, which was just 19 days ago. Last night, I had sex with my husband without using a condom. I want to know if it's possible to get pregnant after having an abortion 19 days ago and having sex without a condom?Doctor's answer:
In the 19 days after a miscarriage, this period is mostly between two menstrual cycles. The range of 4 to 5 days before and after is the dangerous period. If no breastfeeding measures are taken during intercourse, it generally indicates the possibility of pregnancy. After all, a miscarriage is a minor surgery, and most women recover quickly. Usually, normal menstruation can be restored within the same month after a miscarriage. If intercourse occurs during this period, it may lead to pregnancy. Emergency contraception pills can be taken within 72 hours of intercourse to prevent pregnancy.
