welcome to HCM.
Minimum 6 month gap should be there after abortion.EB virus is not in active stage then it is not that serious.I would recommend you try and get yourself as fit and healthy as possible before you concieve.Start nutrients including zinc,folate,b complex,Vit-c and iron.Eating right,avoid stress,yoga and doing regular exercise are also helpful.Consult your gynaecologist for better planing.Best wishes....Thanks.
