Our bodies are constantly changing. Someone told me your body changes every five to seven years. I'm not sure if that's true or not, but ...

Some people develop Asthma as adults and they never had it as children. Some people have Allergies as children and then "grow out" of the allergies when they become adults.

Pregnancy causes some serious changes to your body. I would think developing acid reflux after a pregnancy isn't totally out of the ordinary but I'm not a medical professional!

Acid reflux is extremely common in pregnancy. All of your organs, including your stomach, are displaced because of the uterus enlarging. You also have a whole host of hormones that are changing the way food tastes and what foods will cause reflux symptoms. Try to pay attention to which foods seem to make your symptoms worse and avoid these--often the symptoms will go away after the baby has been delivered.

Can a lady stop the pregnancy by taking a medication before knowing she is pregnant?

The simple answer is the "Morning After Pill". Taking it prevents a pregnancy from happening. If taken during a Pregnancy it can cause Spontaneous Abortion. There would have to be severe abuse of most OTC medications normally taken, for most to cause a miscarriage. Although there are some medications that are known to cause defects that may cause a very early pregnancy to stop from developing or severe birth defects if the pregnancy continues. The antibiotics tetracycline and sulfa drugs, drugs used to treat tuberculosis and some cancer drugs, hormone supplements, some anticonvulsants, and certain drugs used to treat psychosis and anxiety. Thalidomide a drug given to stop morning sickness in the 50's caused severe abnormalities. These drugs should never be used in early pregnancy and should be used with extreme caution by women in their child baring years. Drugs used recreationally such as LSD and cocaine, and large quantities of alcohol in very early pregnancy can all cause defects that could cause a miscarriage.

It could be a sign of pregnancy. No one is immune from heartburn. It can happen at any time. If it persists for more than a week after taking antacids, then you should talk to your doctor about possible acid reflux. If you feel that it accompanies other symptoms and just "feel" pregnant, then you should take a pregnancy test or schedule a visit with a health care provider.
