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.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

View allMy mom has been having heavy bleeding and the doctors said her uterus wall is thickening based on scans. They recommended surgery since this happened before 18 months ago too but now the wall is thicker. Her blood levels dropped from the bleeding and they quoted around 50k for the procedure scheduled this Saturday. Is surgery the best option given her history and current condition?
It's understandable to be concerned about your mom's health. The thickening of the uterine lining (endometrial hyperplasia) and the subsequent heavy bleeding, especially with the blood level drop, are serious issues. Surgery might be a reasonable option, especially if the previous episode occurred 18 months ago and the condition has worsened

Does endometriosis go away?
For many women, endometriosis goes away at menopause, when their periods stop. Until menopause, medicine and surgery may be able to help with symptoms of endometriosis.

I'm really concerned because I've noticed a swelling near my clitoris. I'm a virgin, and there's no bleeding, but one side has been swollen for about three days now. It's super itchy sometimes, and I can definitely feel the swellingit hurts a lot. I always keep my whole body clean and wash my vagina every time I pee. I can't figure out why this is happening, and it's really scary. Can you help me understand what's going on?
A swollen and painful area near the clitoris, accompanied by itching, in the absence of bleeding or sexual activity, could be caused by various factors such as a Bartholin's cyst, ingrown hair, vaginal infections like vulvovaginitis, or other conditions like herpes or eczema, so it's essential to consult a gynecologis
