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 worried because I've been having continuous bleeding for two weeks now after taking the pill for my medical abortion. Can you explain why this might be happening and if it's normal for it to last this long?

That could be due to retained products of conception,you need to take one more course of the tablets,visit Gynaecologist for evaluation and appropriate management

I took misoprostol on July 9th at 8:30, but it's been 18 hours and I'm not bleeding. What should I do? I'm starting to get worried.

If you haven't started bleeding within 24 hours of taking misoprostol, it's likely that the abortion was not successful, and you may need to repeat the dose or consider other option

I'm really concerned because I had a family planning operation along with an abortion back on April 24th, 2018. Right after the procedure, I just had spotting and some stomach pain. But now, 13 days later, I'm experiencing bleeding. Is this something I should be worried about? What steps should I take to address this?

The bleeding 13 days post-family planning operation and abortion warrants immediate medical attention; possible complications include infection, retained products of conception, or hemorrhage; contact your surgeon or gynecologist,
