Hi,
Thanks for the query.
An abortion will not influence your ability to get pregnant in the future. If it was performed in a proper manner under proper aseptic conditions then you will not have any problems in conceiving.Be assured about this.
But if it was performed inappropriately and there was any internal scarring leading to adhesion's then there might be problems in conceiving.You can do an physical examination and also an ultrasound to rule out any problems.
Wish you the best.
Regards.
