I had sex with my boyfriend last month. I want my periods to come by the 1st of every month. My period is delayed by three days, and I took a pregnancy test, which was positive. When should I take an unwanted pregnancy kit, and how much bleeding should I expect after abortion?

Since your pregnancy test is positive, do not take any abortion or unwanted pill on your own. The safest step now is to consult a gynecologist immediately. They will guide you on the correct process, timing, and dosage. Bleeding after medical abortion can last from a few days to over a week, depending on your body. Your doctor may also suggest a Beta HCG test or ultrasound to confirm the stage.

Hi, today is the 12th day after IVF. Can I do a urine pregnancy test at home now? I have heard that sometimes urine test results may differ from a blood beta hCG test. Which test would be more reliable at this stage?

My last period started on 26th July, and my cycles are irregular. I had unprotected intercourse on 15th August. For the past month, I have been feeling tired, dizzy throughout the day, and sometimes nauseous. I took a pregnancy test today, and it was negative. Could there still be a chance of pregnancy, or might these symptoms be due to something else?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Is it necessary for the value of two beta hCG tests to increase in order to confirm a pregnancy? If both values are the same, what does it indicate? The tests were done 48 hours apart.
