I took misoprostol earlier in the day around 11:30 am and noticed a bit of spotting. If I push a bit, I get some bleeding, but it's not heavy at all. My doctor mentioned that I'd start having heavier bleeding after about 3 to 4 hours, but that hasn't happened yet. It's almost 9:30 now, and I'm getting worried. What should I do next?

Given that it's been 9.5 hours since taking misoprostol and you're experiencing only spotting and minimal bleeding upon straining, contact your doctor immediately for guidance, as the expected heavy bleeding hasn't occurred; your doctor may recommend another dose of misoprostol,

View allMy mom has been having heavy bleeding and the doctors said her uterus wall is thickening based on scans. They recommended surgery since this happened before 18 months ago too but now the wall is thicker. Her blood levels dropped from the bleeding and they quoted around 50k for the procedure scheduled this Saturday. Is surgery the best option given her history and current condition?
It's understandable to be concerned about your mom's health. The thickening of the uterine lining (endometrial hyperplasia) and the subsequent heavy bleeding, especially with the blood level drop, are serious issues. Surgery might be a reasonable option, especially if the previous episode occurred 18 months ago and the condition has worsened

I'm currently 20 weeks pregnant, and my latest ultrasound showed that my placenta is posterior with the lower margin being 4.2 cm away from the internal os. It's graded at 1 right now. I'm really keen on traveling soon and just wanted to check if that's safe given my current condition. Any advice?

I'm dealing with some pretty annoying burning and itching down there and it's been bothering me a lot. I think it might be because I had an allergic reaction to some vaginal creams I used before. I've stopped using all those creams, gels, and even antibiotics now, so I'm just wondering, is Vwash safe and effective for cleaning and helping with this kind of irritation? I'm really looking for something that can help soothe the discomfort.
kk you can stop & consult doctor.
