Health Questions and Answers: How soon after an abortion could one have another one?

Health Question:
How soon after an abortion could one have another one?

Question:
I have a question that I am wondering about. How soon after abortion could one have another abortion, or be accepted to a clinic to have another one. Would clinics refuse to help you if you had an abortion 2 months ago.

Response:
I don't know of a single clinic who would turn away any pregnant woman ..... regardless of when she had a past abortion. We certainly would not refuse to help.

Since abortion and pregnancy throw off a woman's monthly cycle, it's actually quite easy to get pregnant again soon after an abortion. Clinics understand that. Also some women go through especially fertile times in their lives.

Clinics don't judge women, we are here to serve women who need health care.
