Hello. Thank you for posting.

Many women do not understand that they can get pregnant right after an abortion, as soon as 7-10 days after the termination of pregnancy. It is very important that a reliable form of birth control is used (birth control pills, condoms, etc) Emergency contraception should only be used for emergencies. Since you took it and thus far have yielded a negative result, it's unlikely you would be pregnant. However, between the abortion and ECP, it will take time for your cycle to regulate again.
