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.

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.

I took a misoprostol kit for abortion on June 3rd but my ultrasound on July 1st showed an 11x7 mm retained product of conception in the fundal region. Is it possible for this to pass naturally in my next period or are there any medications that can help besides surgery? Are there alternative treatments in Ayurveda or Homeopathy?

Small retained products of conception may pass naturally or with medicines. If unresolved, minor surgical evacuation may be needed.

my HSG test results say my uterus is normal in shape with no signs of bicornuate septate or arcuate uterus but both fallopian tubes weren't clearly seen though there was free peritoneal contrast and no hydrosalpinx. does this mean i need surgery or can i just take meds to fix this? my radiologist said it's not a big issue but i'm still worried

Your HSG results, while showing a normal uterus and free peritoneal contrast, indicate that the fallopian tubes may not be fully patent (open). This could mean they are slightly blocked, though your radiologist seems to believe it's not a significant issue. Further evaluation with a Diagnostic Laparoscopy and Tubal Patency test or a consultation with a fertility specialist is recommended to determine the best course of action
