My wife had an IUI on the 20th and 21st of August, and it's been about 15 days now, but she hasn't noticed any major pregnancy signs. The only thing is she's feeling a bit dizzy in the afternoons. Could you let us know when pregnancy symptoms usually start? We're just a bit anxious.

Hello, it's not unusual for pregnancy symptoms to vary or be absent in the early days. Dizziness could be related to hormonal changes, but it's not a definitive sign. I recommend waiting a couple more days and doing a pregnancy test if her period doesnt start. Wishing you the best!

I'm feeling a bit anxious after taking the MTP pill because my scan showed there are small retained products of conception. What should I do next?

One more dose of mesprostl can be given if not vaccum aspiration or D&C could be tried.

I'm a bit concerned because I took mifepristone and then 24 hours later, I followed it up with 4 tablets of misoprostol, just like my gynaecologist told me to. But I've only had a bit of spotting for a little while and then no bleeding at all, just some cramps and nausea. It's been over 21 hours since I took the misoprostol and I'm worried that it might not be working. Can you help me understand what's going on or what I should do next?

Given the lack of bleeding 21 hours after taking misoprostol, despite experiencing cramps and nausea, it's essential to follow up with your gynaecologist as soon as possible to assess the abortion's success and rule out any potential complications or ongoing pregnancy; you may recommend an ultrasound to confirm the outcome and provide further guidance.
