I'm curious about the possibility of using papaya for an abortion at home. Specifically, how many weeks into a pregnancy could this method be an option? I'm looking for some detailed guidance on this, as I'm trying to understand my options better.

Using papaya for abortion is not safe or recommended, as it can lead to severe complications such as infection, bleeding, or incomplete abortion. Abortion should only be performed under medical supervision within the legal time frame, typically up to 10 weeks of pregnancy, depending on the country. Please consult a healthcare professional for guidance and support.

Laparoscopic surgery to unblock blocked fallopian tubes, especially in cases of bilateral salpingitis with ampullary block, can significantly improve fertility, but the success rate isn't guaranteed. It's crucial to understand the factors that influence the success of such surgery and consider alternative treatments like IVF if needed
