Question 1

I'm really worried because I did a medical abortion back in December last year when I was 4 weeks pregnant. I went through all the bleeding and even passed tissues and clots. Afterward, I got my periods in February and March, and my home pregnancy tests are negative. But I've noticed my stomach is growing, and I can't figure out why this is happening. I don't have any complications or pregnancy symptoms, but ultrasound isn't an option for me right now due to some family issues. What could be causing this?

Possible Causes of Spleen Enlargement*

1. *Fatty liver*: Although your fatty liver is grade 1, it might be contributing to the spleen enlargement.
2. *Portal hypertension*: Elevated bilirubin (1.6) and liver enzymes (SGOTSGPT) could indicate portal hypertension, which can cause spleen enlargement.
3. *Other potential causes*: Although your tests were mostly normal, other possible causes of spleen enlargement include lymphoma, leukemia, or a spleen disorder.

*Recommendations*

1. *Follow-up ultrasound*: Schedule a follow-up ultrasound in 2-3 months to monitor the spleen size.
2. *Liver health*: Continue with udiliv 300 and vitamin E to support liver health.
3. *Weight management*: Maintain your weight loss efforts, as excess weight can exacerbate fatty liver and spleen enlargement.
4. *Consult a gastroenterologist*: Seek a consultation with a gastroenterologist to further investigate the cause of spleen enlargement and fatty liver.

Accepted Answer

Based on your report, your parameters appear normal: the free beta-hCG (193ngml) is within the typical range for 15 weeks gestation, the biochemical T21 risk (1:178) is considered low-risk, and the nuchal translucency (1.7mm) with a MoM of 1.09 is also within normal limits, and with the trisomy 21, 13, and 18 screens all reported as negative, your results indicate a low risk for these chromosomal abnormalities.

Accepted Answer

Visiting a Pulmonologist is an excellent step in managing your allergic bronchitis; before the consultation, maintain a symptom journal, note down your medical history, and prepare a list of questions to ask the doctor; expect the Pulmonologist to perform a physical examination, review your test results, and possibly order additional tests like spirometry, peak flow, or allergy tests to develop a personalized treatment plan, which may include medications, lifestyle modifications, and avoidance of allergens.
