So, I took Mifepristone yesterday morning around 8:30 and then took two Misoprostol tablets after four hours. Later, I took the remaining two Misoprostol tablets after another two hours. I started bleeding, but by last night, the bleeding became very light, almost nothing. I was dealing with stomach pain, vomiting, and feeling weak but now those symptoms have disappeared. How can I tell if the medication worked or not?

It's common for bleeding to vary after taking Mifepristone and Misoprostol, and some people experience lighter bleeding or cramping as the process progresses. You can confirm whether the medication worked by scheduling a follow-up ultrasound with your doctor to ensure that the pregnancy has been terminated completely. If you have concerns or symptoms persist, it's best to consult with your healthcare provider.

View allI'm really confused right now since my period is 36 days late. I took a pregnancy test two weeks back and it came out negative, but I'm experiencing a bunch of pregnancy symptoms. I'm not sure what to do next. Should I be worried about something else going on? What steps should I take from here?
It's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can consider taking a different brand of pregnancy test or a blood test for a more accurate result. If pregnancy is ruled out and your period is still delayed, your doctor may recommend further investigations or prescribe medication such as Provera (medroxyprogesterone) to help induce a period.

I have three fibroids in my uterus and the largest one is 6cm. Is there any way to treat them naturally or is surgery the only option? I'm really worried about what to do next
While you can't cure fibroids on your own, several treatment options are available, and surgery is not always the first or only choice. For a 6cm fibroid, your doctor might recommend a myomectomy (surgical removal of the fibroids) or other procedures like uterine artery embolization, depending on your symptoms and overall health. Additionally, non-surgical options like hormonal treatments or watchful waiting might be considered
