View allI'm 6 weeks pregnant and considering abortion. The doctor suggested surgical abortion but I'm wondering about the success rate of medical abortion and which medicines would be safe to use at this stage
At 6 weeks, surgical abortion is safer; medical abortion has 90–95% success—consult a gynecologist.

My mom's ultrasound report shows a cyst in her left ovary and a small appendicolith measuring 92.3 mm. Can this be treated with medicine or is surgery the only option?
For an ovarian cyst, treatment options range from observation and medication to surgery depending on size and symptoms. Small cysts may resolve on their own, while larger or symptomatic cysts might require surgical removal or other interventions. For an appendicolith (a stone in the appendix), treatment depends on the severity of symptoms and the size of the stone. Options include observation, antibiotics, or surgical removal of the appendix (appendectomy).
