After an abortion 22 days ago, if you had sex and took birth control pills, will you get pregnant?

Patient's question:

After an abortion 22 days ago, I had sex and took emergency contraception. Then I had sex again. Will I get pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

After taking emergency contraception pills, you should be able to prevent an accidental pregnancy. However, it is important to know that induced abortion causes more harm to a woman's body compared to emergency contraception. You should not have sexual activity for two months after the procedure, and it is especially crucial not to engage in sexual activity before the full recovery period has been reached. Taking emergency contraception can significantly interfere with the body's complete recovery. Although it is highly unlikely to get pregnant, it can easily cause adverse effects on the body's recovery process. It is necessary to visit a hospital for a check-up to see if there are any issues.
