I had a medical abortion a few days ago. I took mifepristone and misoprostol as instructed, but I haven't had any stomach cramps and only noticed slight bleeding for 45 hours. I've been feeling nauseous and even vomited a couple of times, but not right after taking the tabletit was about 3 hours later. The kit I used had 1 mifepristone, which I took two days before, and 4 misoprostol tablets that I took two each with a 78-hour gap in between. I'm really worriedis the abortion successful? If it isn't, what should I do? Is it okay to repeat the process?

To confirm if the abortion was successful, you should follow up with a healthcare provider for an ultrasound examination. If the abortion was not successful, your healthcare provider may recommend a surgical procedure to complete the abortion. It is not safe to repeat the medical abortion process without consulting a healthcare provider. It is important to seek medical advice to ensure your safety and well-being.

View allMy wife is struggling with vaginal dryness, and it's becoming a bit of an issue for us when it comes to our intimacy. Could you recommend a good vaginal lubricant that we can pick up at the local pharmacy?
This is often the result of not enough foreplay. Insufficient lubrication is also commonly caused by a drop in estrogen levels after menopause, after childbirth or during breast-feeding. Certain medications are known to inhibit desire or arousal, which can decrease lubrication and make sex painful. These include antidepressants, high blood pressure medications, sedatives, antihistamines and certain birth control pills. This includes injury or irritation from an accident, pelvic surgery, female circumcision or a cut made during childbirth to enlarge the birth canal (episiotomy). An infection in your genital area or urinary tract can cause painful intercourse. Eczema or other skin problems in your genital area also can be the problem...Involuntary spasms of the muscles of the vaginal wall (vaginismus) can make attempts at penetration...consult gynecologist they will help you further

I recently had a c-section on the 11th of May, and I'm wondering if it's okay to wear a post-delivery belt around my abdomen while I sleep. Is it safe, or should I avoid it for now?
After a C-section, it's generally recommended to wait for at least 6-8 weeks before wearing a post-delivery belt, and even then, it's best to consult your doctor, but if you must wear one while sleeping, ensure it's not too tight, as this can put pressure on your abdomen and potentially disrupt the healing process.
