 [ Symptoms ] can a doctor tell if you have had an abortion or been previously pregnant during a vaginal exam for a new pregnancy  i had an abortion and am now pregnant again i had it a year ago   i had a surgical abortion and was 11 weeks along my mother is going with me to my first exam i do not want her to know can a doctor tell if i have had an abortion or been pregnant before just by looking and feeling i did not have my abortion in the state so i would not think they would have my medical files about it i plan on telling the doctor later about the abortion but my mom will be with me in the room for the first exam [ Disease ] i do not think that would be a problem but then again blood banks set their own rules those human growth hormones have been long gone in your case so there is really no way that your blood would harbor any residuals in my opinion
