Thanks for the query. Nothing is wrong with you and you are absolutely fine, nothing to worry.
After abortion, its quite common for the menstrual periods to return back to normal. Wait patiently till you have regular periods and regular ovulation.
Proper planning and right health care is required if you want to get pregnant after abortion. You need to prepare your self physically, mentally and emotionally before getting pregnant after abortion.

After a miscarriage or induced abortion, the recommended minimum interval to next pregnancy is at least six months in order to reduce risks of adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes.

Getting Prepared - Talk to your partner and make sure both of you are mentally, physically and emotionally ready for the next child. .

Give Some Space - Wait for sometime and let few of your periods pass on smoothly and without any difficulty. This indicates that your menstrual cycle has returned to normal and increases the chances of the fertilised ovum to survive.

Keep Track of Your Health – Also, find out whether there has been any kind of damage done internally because of the abortion you had to undergo in recent past. A proper abortion technique used by a doctor will usually not damage your inner organs. But in either case, you need to find out the present condition of your body on consultation with a doctor.

Make Your Body Ready for Pregnancy – Prepare your body to get pregnant. Eat healthy, quit or at least cut down smoking and alcohol consumption as well as lower your caffeine intake too. Try to stay active, do exercise, practice yoga and pranayama and increase your intake of vitamins.

Ensure Adequate Rest – Take proper rest. This is vital and usually doctors advice to take rest for at least 6 – 8 weeks after abortion. Follow your doctor’s instructions.

Having Sex Frequently – To increase your chances of getting pregnant, you should have frequent sex with your partner. Although this is quite obvious step, but is extremely important too. However, you need to seek advice from your doctor before resuming your sex life after abortion.

Checking Ovulation Period – If possible, buy an ovulation kit. These are inexpensive and you might get them in any medicine shop easily. This will help you find the actual ovulation days and will help you get pregnant sooner.

Precautions After Sex – After sex, elevate your hips and stay without moving for at least 20 minutes. This will also help you get pregnant easily and without delay.
