Abortion with pills (medical abortion) is generally safe when done under medical supervision and within the recommended timeframe (usually up to 10 weeks of pregnancy). However, its crucial to consult a doctor to ensure it's appropriate for your health, avoid complications, and receive proper guidance for care afterward.

I have a large 17 cm fibroid in the fundus area of my uterus, coming from the posterior myometrium. It's causing pain on the left side of my abdomen, but no lower abdominal pain. My USG shows my uterus is 9.4 cm. Are there any treatment options besides surgery that could help with this?

Yes, there are alternative treatments to surgery for a large fibroid like yours, though surgical removal (myomectomy or hysterectomy) is often considered the most effective long-term solution. If you're looking to avoid surgery, options include medications to manage symptoms or address the fibroid itself
