I'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.

Which is the better option for removing the uterus traditional surgery or laparoscopic surgery? Also, what's the average cost for this procedure in private hospitals in Bhopal? I'm a bit worried about recovery time and complications, so any advice would help

Laparoscopic hysterectomy is generally preferred over traditional open surgery for uterus removal due to faster recovery, less pain, and fewer complications. The cost of a laparoscopic hysterectomy in Bhopal can range from INR 60,000 to INR 1,50,000, with an average cost of around INR 1,00,000. Recovery time is typically shorter for laparoscopic hysterectomies, with most women returning to normal activities within a few weeks.

My wife has been dealing with an itchy, uncomfortable feeling down there for about 15 days now, and she sometimes can't resist scratching. There's also some pain in that area. We saw a doctor who asked for a urine test and gave her some medicine, which I've attached to this message. I'm worried because it's still not getting better. Plus, after we have sex, she feels even more itchy and irritated. What should we do?

it could be due to acidity.....take ppi medicine... do consult your doctor
