I suffered a stroke in april 2012 and have just found out I am pregnant. It was not planned and I'm unsure what the risks involve. I have three children already and am scared to go through with an other pregnancy if it could have a serious impact on our lives.
Hello, Ensuring permanent contraception is the right choice in your situation. If you do not wish to retain this pregnancy, you may see a specialist for a proper clinical assessment, get a trans-vaginal sonogram to locate the gestation sac and the age of the pregnancy and go for an induced medical abortion if you are less than 9 weeks pregnant. Blood counts and urinalysis are also needed before the procedure. The whole process takes 2-3 days. A follow up clinical evaluation and a sonogram after two weeks to look for any retained products is mandatory. Hope this helps.
