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 over 10 weeks into an ectopic pregnancy and really worried is surgery my only option at this point? If yes, how long would I need to stay in the hospital after the procedure?

Can't keep ectopic for long. It's risky if you are continuing it for long. Consult your obstetrician at earliest
