I'm feeling something moving around in my stomach for the past two months. I got my periods, but the sensation is still there. Could this be an ectopic pregnancy?

stomach can be unsettling. Given your symptoms and regular periods, an ectopic pregnancy is unlikely. However, it's essential to consult a doctor to rule out any potential issues.
Possible Causes
- Gas and bloating: Trapped gas, constipation, or food intolerance can cause discomfort and movement sensations.
- Gastrointestinal issues: Conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), or gastroparesis can cause stomach discomfort.
- Hormonal changes: Fluctuations in estrogen and progesterone levels during your menstrual cycle can cause stomach discomfort.
- Other medical conditions: Certain conditions, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), stomach ulcers, or pancreatic disorders, can cause similar symptoms.
Next Steps
- Consult your gynecologist or primary care physician: Discuss your symptoms and medical history to determine the best course of action.
- Get a physical examination: A thorough examination can help identify potential causes.
- Diagnostic tests: Your doctor may recommend tests, such as:
- Ultrasound
- Endoscopy
- Blood tests
- Stool tests

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.

I'm really worried because I missed my period and took an unwanted kit, but there was no bleeding. So, I went to a doctor who gave me some abortion pills, but still nothing happened. She checked with a home pregnancy kit, which came out negative, and mentioned that bleeding should occur within 15-20 days. It's been a month now, and still no bleeding. What could be going on?
