Common Questions and Answers about Miscarriage vs abortion

miscarriage

Avatar n tn I'm guessing you had what was called a "spontaneous abortion" (the more common word is "miscarriage") where your body aborted your baby.? This happens when there are abnormalities of the embryo, and these usually can not be prevented. More than likely sex did not cause your miscarriage. Did you already have the doctor confirm your pregnancy, or did you just take a HPT?
Avatar n tn I just had a miscarriage as well. It's not an abortion it's a D&C. Yes it's probably about the same procedure, but it's not the same thing. If you don't have the procedure and wait for your body to take care of things naturally there is no way of knowing when it will happen. I was told if I waited It could be tomorrow or it could be months. If you weren't very far along you can ask your Dr. for a medication that will jump start the process.

Avatar f tn We do not know if this is an abortion by choice or a miscarriage and it is irrelevant anyway. Abortion is a pregnancy-related issue. I have posted it time and time again that we will not tell someone to leave the forum because they post an abortion question; we offer support and suggestions.

Avatar n tn Clysta- medical term for miscarriage is abortion. Most people in Europe and other countries use the word abortion to mean miscarriage. Original poster- it can take 6-12 months to conceive. Because you were sick with a serious virus and have been on antibiotics your body most likely needs to recuperate. It has been long enough that your body may be getting back on track and conception could take place soon.
Avatar f tn Is it true that when you get pregnant after abortion you go on to have a miscarriage?
Avatar f tn No, it cannot. A miscarriage or termination, whether medication-induced or surgical, has no effect on future fertility. Miscarriages are fairly common regardless of the outcomes of previous pregnancies - but every day gets you closer to being assured of success. Treat yourself gently, be confident that your body knows what to do. Stay hydrated and try not to worry. That's the best thing you can do for yourself right now.
Avatar n tn If this was a medical abortion (also known as miscarriage) many women can and do become pregnant after miscarriages even without a period first.

3162860 tn?1345552861 I'm 5weeks but I don't want the baby to miscarry. Last year i had an abortion and I heard they cause lots of scaring. How do I keep my baby safe and healthy?
Avatar n tn Hi there, although I am not a doctor I am pretty sure that if your wife has had an abortion and called it miscarriage, firstly I am very sorry for your losses, and for the horrible time you must be having. Miscarriage is a natural occurance in a female body, however surgical abortion is not, and if your wife has had to have a D&C evacuation to abort the baby, there will be medical findings for this, she will most likely have scar tissue on her uterus after having had the abortion.
Avatar f tn Im 10 Weeks pregnant and my boyfriend was okay at first But now he says he wont dope and it will put too much pressure on the relationship and that abortion is the thing we should Do But i dont want that But i dont want to loose him What should i Do?
Avatar n tn The word abortion was used to mean "miscarriage" LONG before elective abortions were public. Abortion is the technical term for miscarriage but because it has such a negative connotation now, most docs will tell you you've had a m/c but they'll write 'abortion' on your paperwork. It's just what it's called. It doesn't mean you elected for it to happen. As for the posters question, alaysha's response was correct.
