Ovulation after termination

Hi guys, just after some advice really.

I had a surgical termination on the 29/11. On the 9/12, so Friday, me and my partner had intercourse with a condom, however we realised that it had come off and I think it’s likely that some of the content of said condom did not stay inside it if you catch my drift, just from what it felt like on wiping afterwards. I’ve been really worried that I could become pregnant again, as I know fertility resumes almost immediately after an abortion. I took the EllaOne pill last night so roughly 48 hours after the intercourse, I would have taken it sooner but I was unable to get out. I did an ovulation test on the Saturday, Sunday and today to see if my ovulation has resumed, to know if the medication would be effective or not. I usually have a 29-31 day cycle and ovulate usually approximately around day 17-19, so if the first day after the termination was the “restarting” of my cycle, this makes Friday roughly day 8 or 9, depending on when you start from. Do you think I will be okay? Is there anything more I can do? Pictures will be in comments of said ovulation tests. Thanks for any advice, or if you can point me in the right direction of who to speak to.

They look like negative ovulation tests to me.

thank you for your reply! the picture isn't the best, so I have just attached another one. I'm not sure if I'm just panicking. So hopefully the MAP should work! I have a GP appointment thursday to go through my contraceptive options and begin one that day, so was trying to just make do with condoms in the mean-time however I think now abstinence may just be the best route🤣

When I've had positive ovulation tests they have been as dark as the control line. And that for me means I will ovulate the day after I get that positive.
These look good. It could take a little while for everything to go back to normal or it might not. Best to keep being safe.

i thought as much, i've had positives before which are also the same as yours, these don't look like they're there yet so i'm hopeful the medication should work! Thank you for your response, feel a bit less panicky now x
