I'm wondering if it's okay for my friend to start using Femilon, especially since she's taken emergency contraceptive pills like i-Pill and Unwanted 72 three times in the last four months. I'm curious about any side effects she might experience with Femilon, and I'm also worried if there could be any long-term issues like infertility. Whats your take on this?

Common side effects of Femilon include nausea, headache, breast tenderness, weight changes, and changes in menstrual bleeding patterns. It is generally safe to use Femilon after using emergency contraceptive pills multiple times. However, it is important to consult a healthcare provider before starting any new medication. Regarding long-term effects like infertility, there is no evidence to suggest that using Femilon will lead to infertility. However, prolonged and frequent use of emergency contraceptive pills is not recommended as they are intended for emergency use only. It is advisable for your friend to discuss her contraceptive options with a healthcare provider to determine the most suitable method for her.

View allI'm 9 weeks pregnant and would prefer not to have a surgical abortion. I'm thinking about taking the abortion pill, but not sure how to go about it correctly. Could you guide me on how to take the tablets?
You should consult a gynecologist and opt for medical termination of pregnancy. You will be prescribed an MTP kit, or Mefrin Kit.

I'm 25 weeks pregnant and had a cerclage done at 14 weeks. Right now my cervical length is 30 mm is that normal or should I be worried about it shortening further?
A cervical length of 30 mm at 25 weeks, especially after a cerclage at 14 weeks, is generally considered normal and not a cause for immediate concern. While some shortening of the cervix is expected as pregnancy progresses, a 30 mm length indicates the cervix is still within a safe range. However, it's essential to monitor it closely and discuss any concerns with your doctor
