Patient's question:
On December 23, 2017, I had a cesarean section and gave birth to a baby. After four months, I found out I was pregnant again and had an abortion. Now my baby is 10 months old, and I've discovered I'm pregnant again. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, after a cesarean section, it is usually recommended to wait at least two years before trying to conceive again. Your baby is just ten months old now, so it is best not to get pregnant again for about forty days. You can have an ultrasound around this time to check if the gestational sac is in the correct position in the uterine cavity. If it is normal, you can rule out ectopic pregnancy and then consider options such as medication abortion or surgical abortion at a regular hospital's gynecology clinic. It is essential to take proper contraceptive measures in the future. Wishing you a speedy recovery, a healthy body, and a wonderful life.
