I'm really worried about my wife's nasal congestion. She's 21 weeks pregnant and it's been really severe. She already took a Montek LC but it doesn't seem to be helping with the cold. Could you tell me which nasal drop would be safe for her to use in the second trimester of pregnancy?

I'm two months pregnant and wondering if pills can help stop the pregnancy or if I need surgery. I've been having symptoms like morning sickness, extreme hair fall, tiredness, mood swings, and food tastes bland. I don't feel like eating because it makes me nauseous but I don't actually vomit. Do abortion pills or surgery have side effects? What should I eat if I can't stand food right now?

A gyanec opinion is advised for further treatment.

I've missed my period this time and had unprotected sex about 12 days ago. I'm unsure if I'm pregnant, and I'm worried about what might happen if I take Unwanted Mankind abortion pills without confirming it. Could there be any side effects if I take them even if I'm not actually pregnant?

Taking abortion pills like Unwanted M without confirming pregnancy is not recommended. If you are not pregnant, these pills can still cause side effects such as nausea, bleeding, or hormonal disturbances. Please take a pregnancy test first and consult a doctor for appropriate guidance.
