Can you get pregnant a week after an abortion?

Patient's question:

Will I get pregnant if I have sex a week after an abortion? Last week, when I was on vacation and went home, my mother and a few other people told me that a sister-in-law from our family was going to have an abortion. Then they all said they would go to the hospital to see her, and they also said that this abortion wasn't going well.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, friend, it is absolutely impossible to get pregnant one week after an abortion procedure. However, sexual intercourse at this time can cause significant harm to you and easily lead to infection. Therefore, sexual activity must be strictly prohibited until your menstrual period returns after the abortion. Did the doctor remind you about this at the time? I suggest you pay attention in the near future, take good care to avoid cold exposure, and always maintain cleanliness and hygiene in the external genital area. Eat less spicy and irritating foods, and consume more nutrient-rich foods to help your body recover as quickly as possible. Additionally, if you feel any abnormal symptoms, please seek medical attention promptly for a check-up.
