A member asked:

Why is it so hard for me to get pregnant after my abortion 5 months ago? i have really irregular period?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Abortion effects: After a pregnancy and an abortion, it takes you body a while to reestablish a regular hormonal cycle, anywhere from 3-9 months. This is the most likely cause of both your irregular periods and the lack of pregancy. I do have to wonder why you would want to get pregnant right after an abortion. Am i missing something?
