I've recently had a medical termination and after 15 days, I found out there are retained products. My doctor used 2 tablets to help but I'm only feeling lower back pain and no other symptoms. How long until bleeding starts? Can retained products be expelled through bleeding, or will they come out with my period? Is it safe to wait until my next period for them to pass? I'm really worried and would appreciate some advice.

I'm really worried because I'm getting married in November, and my fianc doesn't know I'm not a virgin. I had sex when I was 18, and now I'm 21. I've done a lot of fingering too. When I first had sex, it didn't hurt, and there wasn't any blood. I've heard about alum for tightening, and I want to know if it could help. Can you give me any advice on becoming a virgin again or making it seem like I am?

Unfortunately, once you have had sex and lost your virginity, there is no way to get your virginity back

I've been eating raw rice for the past three months, and I'm not sure why I started. I've noticed since then that my period has become irregular, sometimes lasting 10 to 15 days, though it's in small amounts and has a brown color. Could eating raw rice be causing these changes? I'm really curious and a bit worried about what's going on.

There is no relation between eating raw rice and having dysmenorrhea (abnormal or prolonged periods). You should consult a gynecologist for proper evaluation of your dysmenorrhea and its cause. Eating raw rice can cause constipation and gastric difficulties, but does not relate in any way to prolonged periods.

Has anyone won a lawsuit against Essure?

Bayer's $1.6 billion settlement is a victory to thousands of women who filed Essure lawsuits against the pharma manufacturer, and to almost 44,000 members of Facebook Essure campaigns.
