I'm a bit concerned because I took mifepristone and then 24 hours later, I followed it up with 4 tablets of misoprostol, just like my gynaecologist told me to. But I've only had a bit of spotting for a little while and then no bleeding at all, just some cramps and nausea. It's been over 21 hours since I took the misoprostol and I'm worried that it might not be working. Can you help me understand what's going on or what I should do next?

Given the lack of bleeding 21 hours after taking misoprostol, despite experiencing cramps and nausea, it's essential to follow up with your gynaecologist as soon as possible to assess the abortion's success and rule out any potential complications or ongoing pregnancy; you may recommend an ultrasound to confirm the outcome and provide further guidance.

View allI'm a bit worried about my wife who's in her 7th week of pregnancy. She's been having a really tough time with vomiting and just can't seem to keep anything down. The doctor suggested she try Emeset 4mg, but after taking it, she's been feeling uncomfortable with some stomach pain and constipation. I looked it up online, and now I'm confused because there are mixed opinions about using it during pregnancy. Do you think it's safe for her to continue with this medication, or should we consider switching to something else?
Emeset (Ondansetron) can be used in pregnancy but should be done so under careful medical supervision. If she continues to experience discomfort, it's essential to contact her healthcare provider for possible medication adjustment or a safer alternative.

I've just turned 23 and I'm a bit worried because I'm missing my periods. Today marks the 8th day they should have started, but there's nothing yet. It's unusual for me since I haven't experienced a delay like this in the past three years. The only time I had a delay was when I traveled abroad in 2013, and it was a 15-day delay. Last month, my period was only three days late. I had protected sex earlier this month, and I even took a pregnancy test, which came out negative. Do you know why this might be happening or when I might get my periods?
Its possible that your period is delayed due to stress, changes in lifestyle, or hormonal fluctuations, especially since youve had a minor delay last month. Since your pregnancy test was negative and youve had protected sex, there's likely no need to worry. Its normal for occasional delays to happen, but if the delay continues or you have other concerns, its a good idea to consult with your doctor.

I'm a bit worried about this lump under the skin on my mons pubis. It was painful when I first noticed it, but now it doesn't hurt. It's been a week since I found it. What could this be? Should I see a doctor right away or wait a little longer to see if it changes?
Painless lump under your mons pubis skin could be due to various reasons such as an ingrown hair, a cyst, or a lipoma. It is advisable to have it evaluated by a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and management. In the meantime, you can apply warm compresses to the area to help reduce any inflammation. If it is determined to be an ingrown hair, over-the-counter topical antibiotics like Neosporin can be used. If it is a cyst or a lipoma, further treatment options can be discussed with your healthcare provider.
