Patient's question:
I have been married to my husband for a long time. Last year, I got pregnant, but because there were signs of miscarriage, I had an abortion. I have had signs of miscarriage before and had an abortion. Now, my husband and I want to have another child. How long do we need to wait?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help you clarify this. Previously, after an induced abortion procedure, it is generally necessary to wait at least about a year before becoming pregnant. This is because the body has not fully recovered to its normal state after the procedure, and getting pregnant too soon can easily lead to complications such as fetal infection and recurrent miscarriage. Based on your description, if a significant amount of time has passed since your last induced abortion and your overall condition has returned to normal, you may consider becoming pregnant. I recommend that you and your partner visit a hospital for a pre-pregnancy checkup.
