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.

I have a 10.48.2 cm fibroid on the posterior wall of my uterus and my doctor recommended surgery. I'm 25, married, and planning for a baby this year. Will the surgery affect my chances of getting pregnant? Is there any way to treat this without surgery?

A fibroid of that size on the posterior uterine wall can affect pregnancy, depending on its location and symptoms. Surgery (myomectomy) can improve your chances of conceiving by removing the fibroid, but recovery time is needed before trying. Some smaller fibroids can be managed medically or with less invasive procedures, but at your size, surgery is often recommended. Discuss fertility-preserving options with your doctor before deciding.
