At the end when she lost her virginity to Irwin, what went wrong? She started hemorraging and the doctor said "you're one in a million" and later on she had to get a "fitting"

Why was she hemoraging? Is a "fitting" an abortion (weren't they illegal then; she is at a reputable doctor....)? What happened?
