An abortion surgery in Singapore is considered to be a safe and medically established method for terminating an unwanted or unplanned pregnancy. However, one prevailing misconception is that it can lead to fertility issues and pregnancy complications in future. Show Does a past abortion affect future pregnancy?Many women do go on to become pregnant and have children after undergoing abortion, sometimes even shortly after, if they were not careful with contraception. When done by a skilled abortion surgeon in an accredited abortion clinic, the procedure poses little to no harm to a woman’s reproductive organs and fertility. Contrary to what some may believe, a past abortion will not result in miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy and preterm birth in the future. However, if a woman has multiple abortion surgeries within a short span of time, she may be at risk of scar tissue formation in the uterus, or a weakened cervix. Nonetheless, these issues can be properly treated or managed should she decide to have a baby in the future. How soon can a woman get pregnant after an abortion?Following an abortion procedure, a woman can expect her period to return within 4 to 8 weeks. In many cases, ovulation resumes as early as two weeks after the surgery. This means that a woman can get pregnant again before her first menstrual cycle after an abortion. Prior to a Singapore abortion, it is important for the doctor to discuss contraception options to avoid another unwanted pregnancy. Sexual intercourse is prohibited for two weeks after an abortion to allow the body to heal.

But there's a very small risk to your fertility and future pregnancies if you develop a womb infection during the procedure that's not treated promptly. The infection could spread to your fallopian tubes and ovaries, known
as pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). PID can increase your risk of infertility or an ectopic pregnancy, where an egg implants itself outside the womb. But most infections are treated before they reach this stage, and you'll
often be given antibiotics before an abortion to reduce the risk of infection. Get medical advice as soon as possible if you experience any signs of infection after an abortion, such as: Find out more about the risks of an abortion Page last reviewed: 15 August 2019 |
