Brief Answer:
chances of pregnancy low.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query,
The chances of pregnancy are minimal as ovulation doesnt really start so early after an abortion, so you may wait for your menses to return, but make sure to avoid pregnancy for next 3 months to allow uterus to return back to its pre-pregnant state.
