I had a medical abortion a few days ago. I took mifepristone and misoprostol as instructed, but I haven't had any stomach cramps and only noticed slight bleeding for 45 hours. I've been feeling nauseous and even vomited a couple of times, but not right after taking the tabletit was about 3 hours later. The kit I used had 1 mifepristone, which I took two days before, and 4 misoprostol tablets that I took two each with a 78-hour gap in between. I'm really worriedis the abortion successful? If it isn't, what should I do? Is it okay to repeat the process?

To confirm if the abortion was successful, you should follow up with a healthcare provider for an ultrasound examination. If the abortion was not successful, your healthcare provider may recommend a surgical procedure to complete the abortion. It is not safe to repeat the medical abortion process without consulting a healthcare provider. It is important to seek medical advice to ensure your safety and well-being.

My wife's in her 6th month of pregnancy and she's been having some issues like vomiting, a cold, runny nose, and headaches. We went to a gynecologist who prescribed some meds like azithromycin, Sinarest, and Ascoril D Plus syrup. We even did a COVID test and it was negative. I'm just really concerned if these tablets are safe during pregnancy, especially since she's at 24 weeks now. Are there any possible side effects on the baby from these medications?
Possible HIV Exposure and Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) *Assessment of Risk* 1. *Condom use*: You used a condom, which significantly reduces the risk of HIV transmission. 2. *Condom breakage*: Although the condom remained inside, the risk of transmission is still relatively low. *Laboratory Test Results* 1. *Negative result*: Your HIV test result is negative, which is reassuring. *Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP)* 1. *PEP eligibility*: PEP is typically recommended within 72 hours of potential exposure. 2. *PEP effectiveness*: PEP can reduce the risk of HIV infection if started promptly. 3. *Consult a healthcare professional*: Discuss your situation with a healthcare provider to determine if PEP is necessary. *Next Steps* 1. *Schedule a follow-up test*: Repeat the HIV test after the window period (typically 3-6 months) to confirm the negative result. 2. *Practice safe sex*: Continue using condoms correctly to minimize the risk of future exposures. 3. *Seek counseling*: Consider counseling to address any emotional concerns or questions you may have.
