View allI'm really concerned because I took an abortion pill yesterday and now I'm experiencing really heavy bleeding and a headache. I'm feeling incredibly weak, and it's only a 2-week pregnancy. Is this normal, or should I be worried about these symptoms? What should I do?

I've been eating raw rice for the past three months, and I'm not sure why I started. I've noticed since then that my period has become irregular, sometimes lasting 10 to 15 days, though it's in small amounts and has a brown color. Could eating raw rice be causing these changes? I'm really curious and a bit worried about what's going on.
There is no relation between eating raw rice and having dysmenorrhea (abnormal or prolonged periods). You should consult a gynecologist for proper evaluation of your dysmenorrhea and its cause. Eating raw rice can cause constipation and gastric difficulties, but does not relate in any way to prolonged periods.
