I'm newly married and I've been thinking a lot about contraception lately. I'm really curious about the different methods and medicines available, but I'm also a bit worried about the side effects. Could you provide some advice on what options might be best for someone in my situation? It would be so helpful to know what to expect and any recommendations you might have.

I'm really worried because I took vaginal misoprostol two days ago, and there's still no bleeding. Is this normal? Should I be thinking about taking more, or is there something else going on?

If there's no bleeding after taking misoprostol, it could be due to individual variations in how your body responds to the medication. It's important not to take more without consulting your doctor, as they can assess your situation and determine the best course of action.
