How do miscarriages look?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Signs of a miscarriage can include spotting or vaginal bleeding similar to a menstrual period. The bleeding will often have more clots than a regular period, appearing as tiny lumps in the vaginal discharge. Abdominal cramping may also accompany.

View allI had sex with my girlfriend today, January 11, and the condom broke. She took Unwanted 72 before, like three days ago on January 7, after we had unprotected sex. Can she take the pill again or is that too much for one week? Really concerned about what we should do.
Using **Unwanted 72** twice in a week is not recommended, as it contains a high dose of hormones, which can disrupt your girlfriend's menstrual cycle and cause side effects like nausea, irregular bleeding, or fatigue. It's best to consult a healthcare provider for guidance on emergency contraception and explore long-term contraceptive options for better safety and effectiveness.

I'm 6 weeks pregnant and my hcg levels are going up really slowly. They only went from 4300 to 4500 over four days. I'm feeling worried about whether this could mean my pregnancy might not be viable. Should I consider taking hcg injections to help?
