I've got a 12cm fibroid in my uterus, and Im really worried about having to go through surgery. Are there any medicines or other treatments out there that could help shrink it instead?

My wife just found out she's pregnant, and we're considering an abortion with medicine. Could you tell us which medication would be appropriate since we're not ready for a baby right now?

You can consider giving your wife a combination of Mifepristone and Misoprostol. These medications are commonly used to terminate early pregnancies. Please consult with a healthcare provider for proper guidance and supervision during this process.

I'm getting engaged in three months, and I'm considering doing a premarital check-up before stepping into married life. What exactly does the check-up include, and is there anything specific that my partner and I really should be focusing on? I want to make sure we're starting our life together on the right foot.

Yes go ahead

I'm really anxious about making sure everything's safe before getting married and I want to be extra careful about not getting pregnant right now. Could you give me some advice on what precautions we should take? And, just in case, if I do end up getting pregnant, what should I do next? I'm really looking for some guidance here.

For premarital safe sex and pregnancy prevention, consider the following: use condoms (malefemale) consistently and correctly, explore other contraceptive methods like birth control pills, patches, rings, or IUDs after consulting a healthcare provider; if pregnancy occurs unintentionally, options include: 1) continuing the pregnancy and preparing for parenthood, 2) adoption, or 3) medical termination of pregnancy (MTP) within the legal timeframe and under medical guidance; prioritize open communication, mutual respect, and informed decision-making with your partner.
