HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, of course you must be put on some weight but that may not be due to the abortion or pregnancy, and the reason could be something else, high calorie diet, hormone medicines, stress, could be the reason so in my opinion cut down calorie in diet, have some exercise, be stress free, diet hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
