I'm a bit concerned because I took mifepristone and then 24 hours later, I followed it up with 4 tablets of misoprostol, just like my gynaecologist told me to. But I've only had a bit of spotting for a little while and then no bleeding at all, just some cramps and nausea. It's been over 21 hours since I took the misoprostol and I'm worried that it might not be working. Can you help me understand what's going on or what I should do next?

Given the lack of bleeding 21 hours after taking misoprostol, despite experiencing cramps and nausea, it's essential to follow up with your gynaecologist as soon as possible to assess the abortion's success and rule out any potential complications or ongoing pregnancy; you may recommend an ultrasound to confirm the outcome and provide further guidance.

I'm experiencing a burning sensation near my vaginal area when I pee, and there's also itching around that area and my anus. I've noticed there are some small pimples near my vagina too. What could this be and should I be worried?

Burning sensation near the vaginal area when passing urine and feeling itching near vaginal area and anus and I can feel a small pimples down the vagina. These symptoms could indicate a possible yeast infection or a bacterial infection. I recommend using an over-the-counter antifungal cream like Monistat for yeast infection. Apply it externally around the vaginal area and follow the instructions on the package. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen for the burning sensation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm 31 and have multiple fibroids with the largest being 8cm. My doctor is recommending surgery but I really want to avoid it. Are there any effective Ayurvedic or Siddha treatments in Chennai that can help dissolve uterine fibroids naturally?

While Ayurvedic and Siddha medicines may offer symptom relief and potentially help with shrinking fibroids, they are unlikely to completely dissolve large fibroids like the one you have (8cm). For such cases, surgical options like myomectomy or hysterectomy are often necessary. However, some Ayurvedic and Siddha treatments might help manage symptoms and potentially reduce the size of smaller fibroids
