Question 1

I'm a bit concerned after taking misoprostol last night at 9:40 pm. I experienced some moderate cramping but didn't notice any significant bleeding. Around 4 am, there was a little bleeding but it stopped quickly, though I'm still having on-and-off cramps. Ive been advised to take another dose of misoprostol again at 9:40 pm tonight. Is this normal, or could it be a sign of an incomplete abortion?

Accepted Answer

Based on your symptoms, it appears that the misoprostol is taking effect, but the abortion process may not be complete, as evidenced by the moderate cramping, initial bleeding that stopped, and the need for a second dose of misoprostol, which is a common practice to ensure complete abortion, but it's essential to follow up with your healthcare provider within 24-48 hours to confirm the completeness of the abortion and rule out any potential complications.

Question 2

Is dryness a sign of period?

Accepted Answer

Immediately after a period, women may notice reduced discharge or mild vaginal dryness.

Question 3

I recently had an ultrasound at 7 weeks 2 days, but it showed I'm actually measuring at 6 weeks 6 days with a fetal heartbeat. For the past four days, I was feeling really nauseous and even threw up as soon as I woke up, but all of a sudden, since yesterday, those symptoms are completely gone and now I feel perfectly fine. Should I be worried about this change? Is it normal to have symptoms come and go at 7 weeks? I had a missed miscarriage around this same time last year, so Im pretty nervous about it happening again.

Accepted Answer

Possible reasons for recurrent seizures despite proper medication include: medication non-adherence or inconsistent levels, tumor regrowth or recurrence, seizures triggered by external factors (e.g., stress, sleep deprivation), or underlying neurological conditions (e.g., epilepsy). Other potential causes include medication side effects, interactions with other medications, or hormonal changes. Consult a neurologist for a thorough evaluation and adjustment of treatment.

I'm about 35 days pregnant and I've had it confirmed. The doctor gave me a Sifasi 2000 IU injection and I'm wondering why it's needed during pregnancy. Also, I've noticed my stomach making noises sometimes and I'm curious about what might be causing that. Could you provide some insight?
