here is another pregnancy question?

Question

If a woman has had several aborted pregnancies and has never carried a pregnancy to term is she likely to become infertile or have trouble getting pregnant when she really wants to?

thanks, sunshine

Answer 1

Depends on her body. Some have 5 interrupted pregnancies one after the other (interrupted on purpose not miscarriages, if we are talking about miscarriages then of course she has a problem) and when they want to keep the baby the pregnancy goes on with no trouble whatsoever. Others may have just one abortion and then , due to a minor complication that doctors didn't detect she might not ever get pregnant.
Just an example. Lets say one woman goes to terminate a pregnancy and it all goes well. Some years later she want to have a baby. So she gets pregnant, goes to a doctor and surprise... they tell her it's an extra uterine pregnancy. This means the baby is trying to grow somewhere outside the uterus, it means it couldn't get all the way to it and it got stuck... Well this happened because of that interrupted pregnancy when somehow they make a cuts on her uterine canals, it healed but it doesn't have the same shape and now....they might have to remove it...

So...there are many problems to appear, but they might not appear. But for sure after several abortions the pregnancy will be difficult, situated lower, with a rigid uterus, and threatening a miscarriage if the woman does not spend most of her time in bed. Most probably the baby wont be carried to term, it will be born earlier.

Answer 2

A lot of "PR" groups will downplay the facts, but multiple abortions do increase a woman's chance of having infertility problems and problems carrying babies to term leading to prematurity and placentia previa, etc.

Some women with prior abortions don't have any problems and can carry a baby to term, but for many the previous abortions causes reproductive problems.

Answer 3

The short answer is yes. Miscarriages generally don't affect future pregnancies, but multiple abortions definitely do. Abortions leave scar tissue. Multiple abortions means more and more scar tissue. While it won't necessarily prevent you from being pregnant, it may prevent you from carrying to term.

Answer 4

Well with several abortions there may be some serious scarring and she may not be able to become pregnant. (And thats the case with any abortion...it can cause a woman to have some serious trouble concieving, incompitent cervix {where the cervix wont stay closed and she miscarries or goes into labor far to early}, among other things.

Answer 5

They say the scare tissue left after having an abortion can have an effect on carrying a baby to term but there's lots of women out there who have had multiple abortions who have healthy babies and theres lots of people out there who have had no abotions that can't have babies.

Answer 6

I would think as long as she had abortions by a licensed professional who did them correctly that she should be alright but why would someone choose to carry a baby when they have already took so many's lives away.

Answer 7

I don't know if she would have problems getting pregnant, but I would think she would have problems staying pregnant. When you have a termination the cervix is forced open unaturally, and this been repeated several times would surely lead to a weak cervix.

Answer 8

If she has had a history of several pregnancies not getting to an end, it might be difficult, but never unpossible. Everything can happen, history tells.

Answer 9

no, my sister friend had alot of aborted pregnancies. and she just got done having a healthy baby girl last year.if the time is right god would do the work.

Answer 10

she shouldnt have problems. i know many people who had abortions and then went on to have normal healthy pregnancies when they were ready for children. if they do have problems then they should see a doctor to rule out any complications.
