I'm really worried about my wife's recovery after her surgical abortion. She's been experiencing bleeding, filling about one pad a day. Do you know how long this bleeding might last? Is this normal?

It's normal for some bleeding to occur after a surgical abortion, typically lasting 1-2 weeks. The amount should gradually decrease, and bleeding of one pad per day is generally considered within the expected range. However, if the bleeding becomes heavy or persists longer than 2 weeks, it's important to consult with a doctor to rule out any complications.

I'm almost 39 weeks pregnant and I've got these annoying red rashes around my belly that are super itchy. Im not sure if theyre from using a razor or what. Is it safe for me to take levocet to help with this? And would it be okay to try just one dose, given I could be heading to the hospital for delivery any day now?

. For temporary relief, topical treatments like calamine lotion or a cool compress may be helpful, but make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider to get the most appropriate treatment.

I have adenomyosis and my doctor prescribed Esyma to help shrink it to around 45-50. I'm trying to avoid surgery since it might affect my chances of having kids. I'm on my third month of meds with a 2-week break after this, and the full course is 6 months. How much longer do I realistically have before my chances of having children are gone?
