My friend had a medical abortion at six weeks. Initially, she didnt bleed for more than a day, but when the bleeding started, it was really heavy and lasted about four days before stopping all of a sudden. Is it normal for the bleeding to stop after just a few days like that? Since it stopped, she's been having severe stomach pain along with fever and headache. Could you help us understand why the bleeding might have stopped so quickly and what might be causing her to have these symptoms?

I'm a bit concerned because I took mifepristone and then 24 hours later, I followed it up with 4 tablets of misoprostol, just like my gynaecologist told me to. But I've only had a bit of spotting for a little while and then no bleeding at all, just some cramps and nausea. It's been over 21 hours since I took the misoprostol and I'm worried that it might not be working. Can you help me understand what's going on or what I should do next?

Given the lack of bleeding 21 hours after taking misoprostol, despite experiencing cramps and nausea, it's essential to follow up with your gynaecologist as soon as possible to assess the abortion's success and rule out any potential complications or ongoing pregnancy; you may recommend an ultrasound to confirm the outcome and provide further guidance.

I'm feeling a bit concerned. My wife is in her 13th week of pregnancy and after doing an Usg level 1 scan, the doctor suggested she start taking ecosprin 75mg daily to help with blood thinning because there's high resistance in the right uterine artery. I'm a bit worried and I just want to know if it's actually safe for her to take ecosprin during pregnancy. What could be the risks or benefits?

Ecosprin 75mg is safe to take during pregnancy, especially for the indication of blood thinning to improve uterine artery blood flow. It is commonly used to prevent complications such as preeclampsia and intrauterine growth restriction. Make sure your wife takes Ecosprin 75mg once a day as prescribed by the doctor.

I'm 6 weeks pregnant and this is my first pregnancy with no miscarriages or other issues so far. My doctor prescribed me Duphaston from the first day until now. Is it really necessary to take it, and what exactly is it for?

Duphaston is a brand name for dydrogesterone, which is a synthetic hormone similar to progesterone. It is commonly prescribed during early pregnancy to support the uterine lining and reduce the risk of miscarriage. It is often recommended for women with a history of recurrent miscarriages or certain hormonal imbalances. In your case, since you have no history of miscarriage or other problems, the use of Duphaston may be a precautionary measure to support a healthy pregnancy.
