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.

View allI'm a bit worried because I had a D&C procedure just for a scan to check for any remains after two weeks. Then I had to repeat it with the suction method. Is it normal that I haven't gotten my period yet and it's been almost three weeks? Am I safe?
Based on your description, it seems like you underwent a dilation and curettage (D&C) procedure followed by a repeat procedure using suction. It is normal for your menstrual cycle to be irregular or delayed after such procedures. However, if you are concerned about the delay in receiving your menses, you should consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation. They may prescribe medications such as Medroxyprogesterone (Provera) to help induce your period.

I've been working out 5 days a week, mixing between light and hard exercises, but I've noticed that I bleed vaginally every single time. It's been happening more often in the past 2 months and I've been in this routine for 6 years. I'm really confused because I'm a virgin, so it can't be anything sexual, and my periods are regular. Plus, I've never used birth control. What's going on?
It's concerning that you're experiencing vaginal bleeding during every workout, especially if it's been happening more frequently. This could be related to hormonal imbalances, stress, or even physical strain. I strongly recommend consulting a gynecologist to rule out any underlying conditions and get a proper diagnosis.

I'm really curious about the benefits of taking an hCG injection during the 5th week of pregnancy. Are there any potential downsides to it? I'm just looking to understand what impact it might have, both good and bad.
HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) injection in the 5th week of pregnancy may help support embryonic development, maintain pregnancy, and prevent miscarriage, particularly in cases of threatened abortion or history of recurrent miscarriages; however, potential disadvantages or risks include multiple pregnancy, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), and allergic reactions, although these risks are relatively low when administered properly under medical supervision.
