The concept of a "safe period" refers to the time in a woman's menstrual cycle when she is least likely to conceive. However, it is important to note that this method is not highly reliable, as ovulation can vary. For more effective pregnancy prevention, it's advisable to use contraception, such as condoms or other birth control methods, to reduce the risk of pregnancy.

So, I took Mifepristone yesterday morning around 8:30 and then took two Misoprostol tablets after four hours. Later, I took the remaining two Misoprostol tablets after another two hours. I started bleeding, but by last night, the bleeding became very light, almost nothing. I was dealing with stomach pain, vomiting, and feeling weak but now those symptoms have disappeared. How can I tell if the medication worked or not?

It's common for bleeding to vary after taking Mifepristone and Misoprostol, and some people experience lighter bleeding or cramping as the process progresses. You can confirm whether the medication worked by scheduling a follow-up ultrasound with your doctor to ensure that the pregnancy has been terminated completely. If you have concerns or symptoms persist, it's best to consult with your healthcare provider.

I'm experiencing some worrying symptoms with my menstrual cycle. During the time I usually have my period, I'm not getting my normal blood flow. Instead, there's this white waxy discharge, and it's also really itchy around that area. Along with that, I have some abdominal pain and redness. My menstrual cycle seems abnormal, and I'm just not sure what's going on. Could these symptoms be connected, and what might this white waxy discharge indicate?
