Ive had two abortions in the past and recently had a miscarriage in the fifth week of pregnancy. Im really worried because my rubella igg, cmv igg, and herpes igg levels aren't normal, although rubella igm, herpes igm, and cmv igm are fine. Can you explain what the difference is between igg and igm, and does having abnormal igg values mean I might never be able to get pregnant again?

IgG and IgM are types of antibodies produced by the immune system in response to infections. IgM is the first antibody produced when you are exposed to an infection, while IgG is produced later and usually indicates a past infection or immunity. Abnormal IgG levels for rubella, CMV, and herpes suggest a previous exposure or infection. This does not necessarily mean you will never become pregnant, but it may indicate a risk of complications during pregnancy. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

My right ovary is bulky measuring 4.5x2.8x1.7 cm with a small functional cyst and the right tube is edematous with mild fluid around it but the left ovary is normal. Should I consider surgery or would medication be better for this?

It's best to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice, but generally, surgery for ovarian cysts and related issues is not always the first choice, especially when the cyst is small and functional. Medication or a wait-and-see approach might be recommended first

I'm wondering if it's safe to use abortion pills again since I had one just a month ago. Are there any risks or side effects I should be aware of with having another so soon?

Orofer XT tonic is an iron supplement designed for women. Given your low ferritin levels and normal hemoglobin (HB) count, Orofer XT might be beneficial. However, concerns about prolonged menstrual periods are worth with your doctor. Monitor your menstrual cycle and report any changes to your doctor.
