I'm really worried because I've been having a lot of pain on the left side of my stomach and irregular periods for about a year now. I recently had an ovary scan and they found follicles. It's been really tough dealing with this pain and I'm not sure what to do. Is there any way to decrease the pain and the number of follicles? I'm looking for a more permanent solution, if possible.

We have to go for an abortion today with a good gynecologist. I'm really looking for some solid advice on how to care for my wife after the procedure. How soon might she recover? What should we focus on regarding her diet? I'm a bit worried and would appreciate your guidance on this.

To support your wife's recovery after abortion, ensure she rests for 1-2 days, avoids heavy liftingstrenuous activities for 1-2 weeks, takes pain relievers as prescribed, and follows a balanced diet rich in iron, protein, and whole foods; also, encourage her to stay hydrated, avoid sexual intercourse for 1-2 weeks, and schedule a follow-up appointment with the gynecologist

Why do doctors finger you?

For pelvic examinations (per vaginal and per rectal ),for checking the muscles between your vagina and your anus, for tumors behind your uterus, on the lower wall of your vagina, or in your rectum and during labor to rupture membranes.
