How do I tell my gynecologist about abortion?

---

I had abortion almost a year ago and I'm planning to go to the gynecologist for a check up but for some reason I just don't know how should I tell that I had abortion. I just think that after I tell the gynecologist will start to ask questions which I really don't want to talk about. Can the gynecologist tell others about my visit?
you need to tell the doctor so they can accurately check you out. you have to tell your history anyway. she can't tell others your info, unless you are under 16 (i believe). just tell her, and she/he can talk to you IF you want to.  (+ info)

How soon after an abortion can you get pregnant?

---

I found out i was pregnant four months going on five very strange. I didn't let my boyfriend know anything about me being pregnant or having an abortion. So a week after the abortion he start asking why i stopped having sex with him and i replied i had change birth control pills and now i started a new period. Later that night we had unprotected sex but he didn't come but i was wondering how long after an abortion can you become pregnant again. And i started taking my birth control pills a few hours after us have had sex.
You most certainly CAN get an abortion at 4-5 months, please ignore the ignorance. You can get pregnant after your periods begin normally again.  (+ info)

When can I start taking birth control after a non surgical abortion?

---

I am having a non surgical abortion this upcoming friday. 1 pill to stop the development of the embryo on friday and 2 suppositories next weekend to expel the fetus.

I don't want any pro-life posts. This isn't a question of SHOULD I get the abortion, the decision has been made. This is a question of when I am able to start my birth control regiment again after the abortion.
Why??? i am unable to have children...what a blessing you have. I am not judging...i am asking. what about the pain that baby will have when you have that abortion?  (+ info)

How do i help my friend to understand how serious an abortion is?

---

My best friend is pregnant and she is getting an abortion. Abortion is the best option for her at this time so i am not questioning whether she should keep the baby or not.
She just seems to be taking it so lightly and even laughs about it, she doesn't understand an abortion is serious. How can i make her see how serious it is and what she is actually doing without talking her out of it?
If u know she's doing the right thing why do you want her to feel guilty about it? If she's confident in her decision I don't see why she has to stress over it.  (+ info)

What are my options when it comes to abortion?

---

I want to know if you guys can give me any information about abortion. Both surgical and medical abortion information would be great.

DO NOT give me the lecture of "you're old enough to have sex so be old enough to accept the consequences". I'm 22 years old and am on the birth control pill and my boyfriend uses condoms religiously. Something obviously happened.

And no, adoption is not an option for me.
I'm really sorry this has happened to you - it must be incredibly stressful and upsetting to have to consider an abortion, and I hope I never have to go through that. I'm presuming that you've already thought through your options (keeping the baby, adoption, termination) and have decided that this decision is the best one for you. I don't know where you are (I'm in the UK), but I'll tell you what I've learned from knowing three people who've gone through abortions. If you're in a different country, the administrative details may differ but the basic information should be similar.

If it's less than 63 days since you conceived, see your doctor about the possibility of a chemical termination. This would probably be the least traumatic option, but it's not suitable for everyone and your doctor will be able to advise you on this.

It makes sense that the earlier you get the termination performed, the simpler and less traumatic it will be for you. If you CAN get the pill, you'll be in some discomfort as the embryo is shed by contractions of the uterus (apparently it's similar to very strong period pains in some women), but it's considered generally safe under the supervision of a doctor. The pill is a drug called Mifepristone which you'll be given at the doctor's office, but you'll be at home for most of the time. This means you can be in familiar, comforting surroundings, as well as having the ability to have company and support from someone you trust.

If you're later in pregnancy, or the mifepristone fails to cause a termination, you'll have to have a more traditional abortion, for which your doctor will refer you to a hospital or clinic.

Up to about 13 weeks you'll be offered a surgical termination under local or general anaesthetic. A sterile tube is inserted into the uterus via the cervix, then suction is applied and the pregnancy is terminated this way. Many women can leave the hospital the same day, but obviously in any case, you'll need good professional follow-up and care.

After this time (I hope this doesn't apply) you would usually have a medical termination. You'd be given medication to induce contractions and will expel the foetus and uterine lining vaginally. Some doctors will perform a surgical abortion at this stage, but it's a more complicated procedure and most would opt for a medical termination instead.

Please bear in mind that whichever path you go down, this is going to be very difficult for you. Abortion is a desperate act in most cases, and an incredibly stressful decision to make. You should ensure you get good counselling before and after the procedure, and if possible confide in someone you know who definitely has your best interests at heart.

Additionally, you could call the British Pregnancy Advisory Service (BPAS) in the UK, or Planned Parenthood (in the US) who can offer you advice and counselling, and can also help arrange the procedure for you.

Whatever happens, I wish you good luck and enduring peace with your decision. Nobody has the right to judge you as they don't know your life or situation - whatever you do is between you and your conscience and I hope you've considered this very carefully. The three women I know who've gone down this path don't regret their decision, but it was pretty difficult at the time for understandable reasons.

Take care.  (+ info)

How soon after a medical abortion did you have your next period?

---

I had a medical abortion 6 weeks ago today. I still haven't had a normal period and there are no signs of it coming. I'm just curious about when it came back for most other women. I don't think I'm pregnant, so I'm not worried about that. I'd just like for my cycles to get back to normal so I can get on with my life. Thanks.
Wow, since no one has actually bothered to answer this question, I'm going to be the first (I really don't understand why people have to use this as a forum for their pro-life nonsense.)
After my abortion, I had my first "period" about 2 weeks afterwards (although the nurses after the operation said it would be about 3-4 weeks before this would happen so I guess it's different for every woman.) I was later told that this wasn't a period but instead it was normal bleeding that occurs after the procedure. It hurts a LOT.
Then about 5-6 weeks after that, my nomal period resumed.
So you should be fine but if you're still worried, see a doctor. It's very unlikely that you could still be pregnant after a medical abortion as there is so little room for error but you never can be too careful. Or maybe it's the stress of the whole situation you've just been through that's preventing your period coming back.  (+ info)

What is your opinion on abortion and teen pregnancy?

---

I am doing a study for school on Abortion and teenage pregnancy. Can you tell me your opinion on these topics? Also answer these questions plz!
1.What do you think a teen should do about being pregnant?
2. Why do you think your opinion on abortion is correct and why should abortion be legal/illegal?
Thanks!
What a teen should do about being pregnant is be educated, prevention is worth so much! Hopefully, sex education will improve (no more abstinence only) so that less will find themselves pregnant due to ignorance.
1. She should really sit down and think about what would be right for her. Two futures are at stake, she needs to consider if she can emotionally, physically, mentally, and financially support a pregnancy. If yes, she should consider if she wants to put it up for adoption or keep it, keeping the good of everyone in mind. She should talk to a doctor and hopefully an adult she can trust, and hopefully a supportive boyfriend. But everything doesn't always go that way.
2. Abortion should always be an available option. Making abortion illegal reduces women to incubators, turns the beauty of pregnancy and childbirth into something ugly and forced, and does not even reduce abortions, statistically. It is truly a very personal choice that when it comes down to it, is up to the woman/teen. The government should not govern reproductive choices, and neither should ignorant zealots on their high horses. :) Good luck on your study.  (+ info)

Where do you get a medical abortion in Melbourne?

---

I was thinking of getting a medical abortion. I want to know where other women got it from. Or do you have to go to a family planning centre?
I am going to be completely honest with you and ask you to reconsider. I don't know what your situation is or how difficult it would be for you to have the child, but I do not want you to go through pain or regret. Once you make this decision, you can never bring your child back to life. I do not want you to live with regret, wondering what would have happened if your baby was still alive, how you would be raising her, taking her to birthday parties, or combing her hair in the morning.

I've met women who have faced similar decisions, and each of them agreed that they would give anything to turn back time.

My email is [email protected]. I can also send you my cell number. If you need anything at all, don't hesitate to message me. I am willing to do all the I can to help you through this.  (+ info)

What's the difference between emergency contraception and abortion?

---

They say the morning after pill isn't abortion then what is it? And how is it different from abortion? And how many times can you take it
the morning after pill is a pill that contains a higher dosage of the hormones that are in the birth control pill. it is used as an emergency after other birth control may have failed to prevent any fertilized egg from implanting. an egg that has not implanted is not yet an embryo, therefore it is not an abortion. An abortion is the terminating of an existing implanted pregnancy.  (+ info)
