I just had an abortion 2 weeks ago, the
kind done by sucktion (not the pill) and
i've been spot bleeding ever since. Is
this normal? Should I be get it checked?

You never know if it could be normal or
not.. Have you gone back for your re
check yet??? If not you could always put
your mind to rest by doing so....

I'm taking a shot at a guess and saying
it's normal. You just had an abortion.

You can expect bleeding to continue for a
few weeks after an abortion, so yes it is
normal.
**** the more active you are after your
abortion, the more you will bleed.
**** taking birth control pills,
combination pills to be exact, will help
to stop bleeding faster.

I am not a Dr., we are all different if
ever you are in doubt of anything you
should call and talk to the Dr., or his
assistant, do not be afraid to ask them
anything. It generally does take a while
to get yourself back in shape after having
an abortion.
The best to you!

many women spot or even bleed as much as
their normal periods for a couple of weeks
after the abortion. From what I have
heard, it is normal. However, if any
other sympotms appear, or if you are
simply unsure, you can always go get
yourself checked out, and then you don't
have to worry anymore :)

I am having an abortion on friday. I am
very early in my pregnancy. I am not sure
I am. I am going to go and test at the
clinic and if I am, I am going to
terminate.
Question?
Is it safe? Will it affect future
fertility?

no one really knows that answer.. It
shouldnt but in some rare cases there has
been some cases where they can not have
children because of something that
happened during the procedure.. Im sure
that you will be okay.. Good luck to you

I am very afraid. I am so terrified. I
have no one to talk to about this. If I
am I just want to get it over with as
quickly as possible.

There is very little likelihood of an
abortion, particularly early in a
pregnancy, of having any effect on future
fertility.
I'm very sorry that you haven't got anyone
who can be with you right now. It must be
very difficult for you, and it would help
just to have someone give you a hug,
wouldn't it? It's a tough thing to have
to go through alone.
Try to stay calm, and remember that
everything we can get through in life
makes us stronger.
Good luck.
