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.

I'm a bit worried because my last menstrual period started on October 21st. On October 28th, my partner and I didn't have actual intercourse, just some rubbing of my vagina over his penis, and he's sure he didnt ejaculate. Just to be safe, I took the ipill on October 30th within 48 hours. Now, Ive been experiencing spotting since November 4th. It started with a few drops, then got heavier and red on the 5th, became even more on the 6th but was brown, and today, November 7th, the bleeding is red. Does this mean there's no chance of pregnancy?

Yes no need to worry you are not pregnant

I'm a 22-year-old girl and I feel a really strong urge for sex almost every day, except during my periods. I'm a student and it's starting to interfere with my studies because I get really restless and can't focus when this happens. Is there any way I can control these urges? Any medications or something?
