I'm really worried because my wife has been diagnosed with fibroadenoma in her right breast, and it's positioned just above her ovary. Our doctor thinks surgery is the best option, but I'm not entirely sure and feel like I need a second opinion on whether this is necessary. What do you think? Could there be any other treatment options we should consider?

I took misoprostol on July 9th at 8:30, but it's been 18 hours and I'm not bleeding. What should I do? I'm starting to get worried.

If you haven't started bleeding within 24 hours of taking misoprostol, it's likely that the abortion was not successful, and you may need to repeat the dose or consider other option
