I'm really worried because I'm about 12 weeks into my pregnancy and I feel like I need to consider my options. Is there an abortion pill available in my country's pharmacies that I could get without having to see a doctor? I realize it was a mistake, and I'm looking for advice on what medication might be safe.

For a medical abortion within the first 9 weeks of pregnancy, you can consider taking a combination of Mifepristone and Misoprostol. Mifepristone is usually taken first, followed by Misoprostol 24-48 hours later. Please consult with a healthcare provider for proper guidance on the dosage and administration.

And on top of that, I had an abortion using pills in February. Could either of these situations possibly affect the health of my baby?

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?

I'm 7 weeks pregnant and dealing with a lot of acidity. I'm wondering if it's safe to take Gelusil syrup for this. Can you advise?

Based on your blood test report: _High PDW (18.9 fl), MPV, and PLCR indicate:_ 1. _Platelet size variation_: High PDW suggests a larger variation in platelet size, which can be seen in conditions like thrombocytopenia or thrombocytosis. 2. _Larger platelets_: Elevated MPV indicates larger-than-average platelets, which can be associated with conditions like thrombocytopenia, myeloproliferative disorders, or inflammation. 3. _Increased platelet activation_: High PLCR suggests increased platelet activation, which can be seen in conditions like thrombotic disorders, inflammation, or infection. _Reason for concern:_ While these results are abnormal, they don't necessarily indicate a serious underlying condition. However, it's essential to consult your doctor to rule out any potential health issues.
