So, I've been having these cramps in my lower abdomen for the past three days, and they feel different than my usual period cramps. My period is late by about five days now, and I took a home pregnancy test two days ago, but it came back negative. Plus, there's this stretchy white discharge going on. My periods usually run on a 30 to 36-day cycle. Should I see a doctor about this?

Not all miscarriages are physically painful, but most of them have cramping. The cramps are really strong for some people and light for others.

My mom has been having heavy bleeding and the doctors said her uterus wall is thickening based on scans. They recommended surgery since this happened before 18 months ago too but now the wall is thicker. Her blood levels dropped from the bleeding and they quoted around 50k for the procedure scheduled this Saturday. Is surgery the best option given her history and current condition?
It's understandable to be concerned about your mom's health. The thickening of the uterine lining (endometrial hyperplasia) and the subsequent heavy bleeding, especially with the blood level drop, are serious issues. Surgery might be a reasonable option, especially if the previous episode occurred 18 months ago and the condition has worsened

I'm 29 weeks pregnant and my latest USG report shows an open internal OS with a cervix of 2.8, a funnel diameter of 6.4mm, and a funnel length of 12.8mm. I'm currently in the hospital, and I'm really worried about how risky this situation might be. Could you please help me understand what those measurements mean and what I should expect?
While your condition does carry some risks, especially for preterm birth, many women with similar conditions go on to have successful pregnancies with the appropriate treatment and monitoring. Your healthcare providers will be the best source of advice to manage this situation and minimize risks to both you and your baby. Stay in close contact with your doctor, and follow their instructions carefully.
