Im really worried about having an abortion and need some advice. It's my first pregnancy, and I'm considering it in the very early stages, around the 34th week. Is it safe to do so at this point? And if it is, what's the best way to go about it? I just want to make sure I'm making the right choices for my health.

Medical abortion is considered safe and effective up to 10 weeks of pregnancy, and for 3-4 weeks, it's typically done using pills like mifepristone and misoprostol; however, it's crucial to consult a gynecologist for guidance, prescription, and follow-up care to ensure a safe and successful abortion.

View allI've taken misoprostol today at 11 amtwo tablets of 200 mg eachbut there's no bleeding yet. Then, I took another two tablets around 7 pm. How long should I expect to wait before the bleeding starts? I'm getting a bit worried and would really appreciate some advice on what's normal in this situation.
After taking misoprostol, bleeding typically starts within 1-4 hours, but it can take up to 24 hours; since you took the second dose at 7 pm, you may experience bleeding within the next 12-24 hours; however, if you haven't bled or experienced severe symptoms like heavy bleeding, severe pain, or fever, consult your gynaecologist

I'm a 29-year-old mom with a 2.5-year-old baby and I've been diagnosed with a right dermoid ovarian cyst measuring 2.6 cm x 2 cm along with bilateral PCOD causing irregular periods. I really don't want to undergo open or laparoscopic surgery since I'm done having kids. Feeling completely stuck and frustrated about what to do next - could you suggest some options for me?
Given your diagnosis of a 2.6 cm x 2 cm right dermoid ovarian cyst and bilateral PCOD, and your preference to avoid surgery, here's a breakdown of potential options and considerations: Understanding Your Situation: Dermoid Cyst: Dermoid cysts are usually benign and often don't cause symptoms, especially when small. While generally harmless, they can grow and potentially cause complications like torsion or rupture if large enough. PCOD: Polycystic ovary disorder (PCOD) can lead to irregular periods and other issues, but with management, fertility remains a possibility. Your Preference: You're hesitant about surgery due to your desire to avoid complications, which is a valid concern

I'm just a bit worried and need some advice. My wife is three months pregnant and I'm wondering if it's okay for her to eat dry seeds, grapes, and dry fruits regularly? She also eats biscuits daily. Is this diet safe for her, or should she be eating other specific foods to support her pregnancy? Please help me out here!
-During pregnancy, she can eat dry fruits, seeds, and grapes in moderation as they provide important nutrients. It's best to focus on a balanced diet, including whole grains, lean proteins, vegetables, fruits, and dairy. Biscuits can be okay occasionally,
