I'm a 28-year-old woman and I'm married. My period was supposed to start around the 24th or 25th this month, but it's late. Usually, I have a regular cycle and it doesn't skip. This time, I tried to prepone my cycle by a couple of days, so I took Primolut N twice a day for three days on the 12th, 13th, and 14th. I waited 5 days after that for my period to start, but nothing happened. Could Primolut N be causing any side effects, like delaying my period or stopping it altogether? What should I do now?

rimolut N, containing norethisterone, can cause changes in menstrual cycle, including delayed or absent periods, as a common side effect, especially when taken in high doses or for extended periods, and since you've already waited 5 days after stopping the medication, it's recommended to wait a few more days and if your period doesn't start, take a pregnancy test and consult your gynecologist for further guidance and to rule out any underlying hormonal imbalances.

View allI'm worried because I was 3 weeks pregnant and took the abortion pills prescribed by my gynecologist, but I've been told my womb wasn't cleaned out properly. Can you tell me how much it might cost to get my womb cleaned up?
Depends on various factors such as the healthcare facility, location, and specific procedures required. The cost can range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars. You may need to undergo a procedure called a dilation and curettage (D&C) to remove any remaining tissue from the uterus. Your doctor may prescribe medications such as Misoprostol to help with the process. It is important to follow up with your gynecologist for further evaluation and treatment.

My wife is 25 weeks pregnant and has been suffering from painful external hemorrhoids for the past 6 days. The general surgeon prescribed anti-inflammatory cream, Ultracet tablets, anti-swelling meds, fiber-rich food, water, milk, and stool softeners, but she's still in a lot of discomfort. Is hemorrhoid surgery safe during pregnancy or are there other options we should consider? The pain isn't easing up and we're really worried about her condition.
Hemorrhoid surgery during pregnancy is generally discouraged due to potential risks and complications. While the general surgeon has prescribed conservative treatments, it's crucial to explore other options for pain relief and discomfort management during pregnancy
