Does an abortion affect future fertility?

Patient's question:

Due to not using contraception in a timely manner, I am now pregnant.

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, it is better to wait for half a year to a year after a miscarriage before getting pregnant again. First, the human body and reproductive organs can get sufficient rest, nourishment, and functional recovery. Normal functioning in all aspects is beneficial for conception, pregnancy, maternal and child health, as well as for achieving a healthy pregnancy, giving birth to healthy offspring, and raising children well. Second, if the first miscarriage was due to abnormal fetal development or illness, the longer the interval between the two pregnancies, the lower the chance of recurrence. Therefore, it is recommended that you consider getting pregnant again six months after the miscarriage.
