Patient's question:
Because I had sex with my boyfriend during ovulation without using contraception, I accidentally got pregnant. Since the pregnancy was very early, I decided to have a medication abortion. After the medication abortion, one week later, my boyfriend insisted on having sex with me again, and we didn't use any contraception during the act. I am very worried. Can I get pregnant again one week after a medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
The medication abortion can be equivalent to one menstrual period. So, during the week of medication abortion, most of the time falls within the safe period. However, since your medication abortion involves factors, it may also affect menopause, leading to delayed or early menopause. Therefore, there is still a possibility of pregnancy in your case, although the probability is relatively low. You can pay close attention to the next menstrual cycle. As long as the next menstrual period occurs normally, it can generally rule out the possibility of pregnancy.
