Many women who have done abortions hope to have children later in life. Since having an abortion is just about the literal opposite of having a baby, it's natural to wonder if a past procedure will have an impact on future fertility. Abortion doesn’t have any effect on fertility and doesn’t stop a woman from becoming pregnant in the future. There are two types of abortions namely; A medical abortion, which is done by taking medication and has no effect on future pregnancies while a surgical abortion is done by putting instrumentation into the uterus to evacuate the uterus.
Multiple episodes of instrumentation can cause scarring in the cervix area even if it’s not an abortion procedure. However, women with multiple abortions might have the same risk of abnormal placentation like women who have had multiple cesarean sections.

NOTE: Unsafe, Illegal abortion or any other procedures can lead to permanent damage involving your reproductive organs, so ensure a healthy reproductive future. Speak to your gynecologist on this issue. For more questions on this topic or any gynecology related topic visit us at www.miss.com.ng
