I'm really worried because I haven't had my period for the last 6 months, and I can feel something hard in my belly. I don't really feel any other symptoms, but back in January, I had typhoid and jaundice. Could this be related to that? I also had sex in November, but my missed period started before then. Is it possible that I might be pregnant, or could it be something else entirely?

I'm struggling with infertility and in a recent ultrasound, my doctor found an endometrial polyp. Can you help me understand the difference between a hysteroscopy and an endometrial biopsy in this context? I'm not sure why my doctor decided to do the biopsy instead, and I'm feeling a bit anxious about what it all means.

I'm a bit concerned because I took misoprostol after getting advice from a gynecologist, and now it's the third day, and I'm still experiencing irregular bleeding. I was 6 weeks pregnant when I took the abortion pill. Is this kind of bleeding normal, or should I be worried?

After taking misoprostol for a medical abortion at 6 weeks of pregnancy, it is normal to experience irregular bleeding for up to 1-2 weeks. If the bleeding is heavy or persists beyond 2 weeks, please consult your gynecologist. You can take ibuprofen for pain relief and consider using sanitary pads instead of tampons to reduce the risk of infection.
