I'm wondering if it's safe to use abortion pills again since I had one just a month ago. Are there any risks or side effects I should be aware of with having another so soon?

Orofer XT tonic is an iron supplement designed for women.

Given your low ferritin levels and normal hemoglobin (HB) count, Orofer XT might be beneficial.

However, concerns about prolonged menstrual periods are worth with your doctor.

Monitor your menstrual cycle and report any changes to your doctor.

Hey, I've been diagnosed with PCOS and my ob-gyn recommended I take Althea pills. I'm a bit worried thoughwhat happens if I get my period before finishing the 21 days of pills? Should I stop for 7 days and then continue with the remaining pills? I'm just a little confused about how to handle this.

If you get your period before completing the 21 days of Althea pills, continue taking the pills as prescribed until you finish the full 21 days. There's no need to stop the pills for 7 days; just complete the pack and start the next one on time. Always check with your doctor for personalized advice.

I'm a bit worried about this situation. I was with my girlfriend, and I fingered her after touching my penis which might have had some precum on it. Neither of us has ever had sex before, and I didnt actually have penetrative sex, it was just fingering. Could there be a risk of pregnancy from this?

I had an ultrasound that showed an enlarged uterus with a large subserosal fibroid measuring 148.8 cm in the right lateral wall and areas of early degeneration, plus another subserosal fibroid in the anterior wall measuring 1.72.2 cm. My ET is 8mm. One doctor recommended surgery, but two others suggested trying to conceive first. I don't have children yet and I'm really confused about what to do should I prioritize surgery or try to get pregnant with these fibroids?
