Patient's question:
I accidentally got pregnant before. After the abortion, my boyfriend kept persuading me for half a month, and I finally agreed to him. Then, we didn't use any protection again, and I'm very afraid of getting pregnant again.Hello, can I take emergency contraception after having sex after an abortion? Thank you.
Doctor's answer:
For is equivalent to a menstrual period, if you have sexual intercourse half a month after an abortion, without using contraception, it is very easy to cause pregnancy again. Since you have just had an abortion, it is generally not recommended to get pregnant again to prevent another abortion. You can take emergency contraception. Emergency contraception can be used as a measure after successful breastfeeding. It is recommended to use proper contraception.
