A member asked:

I am wanting to get pregnant however i have been unsuccessful and feel that the fact that i had an abortion when i was 18 being the problem.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not necessarily: If the abortion was done in a clinical environment with a clinician, then there is almost no impact on future fertility. If the abortion had complications such as an infection or excessive bleeding then there can be a future medical issue if not addressed at that time.
