Could having an abortion over a year ago cause vagnial problems like yeast and bv infections or could it be diet stress antibotics and lack of exercis?

Not from abortion : Vaginitis from yeast and BV is a very common medical problem. It can be caused by many things but an abortion a year ago is not one of them.
