Hello this is my first time on here and I
have a something have been thinking about
for the last few months but not to much
...
Iam 23 now and in college about to be
done!! Yeah! And when I was 18 going on
19 the summer I became pregant, my mother
really never gave me the option to keep
the baby yes I do know now that I could of
had the baby but at that time I didn't
know what to do. Trust me I wish I had
the baby everyday of my life now. I do
have to say that in the last few year I
have drank alot and smoked alot in the
last few months I haven't smoked and I
have drank a few times but not like I did
1 year ago, so my question is that due to
me having an abortion and smoking and
drinking alot in the past does this lower
my chances of getting pregant?? I tryed
with my last boyfriend many many times and
he already has two beatiful children, but
I would juts like to know what other have
to say, thanks alot a have a good year !

If there were no complications following
your abortion then this does not affect
your fertility. You actually know you
can get pregnant so try not to worry!
As for the drinking and smoking you're
still young so it shouldn't be a problem.
If you're worried go to your doc for a
check up. Best of luck

you don't have to feel guilty for
aborting, always remember that.
It is possible that stress associated with
your senior year, the guilt you seem to be
feeling due to the abortion, and other
outside factors could be affecting your
fertility. It is also possible that
you're just not a very fertile woman, and
you'll have to monitor your cycle closely
in order to time things right - in which
case the fact that you became pregnant
before was an (un)lucky coincidence!
Don't worry abortion has a very
low rate of reducing or removing
fertility. In fact, from what I have
heard, giving birth actually has a higher
risk of causing infertility than abortion!
If you have continuing problems, you can
always go see a doctor or fertility
specialist.
