I'm really worried because I used the mankind unwanted kit for abortion on the 26th of March and started bleeding the next day. It's been 9 days now, and I'm still experiencing a lot of bleeding and quite a bit of pain. The kit mentioned that bleeding could last anywhere from 9 to 16 days, so I'm uncertain if I should just wait it out or if I should consult a gynecologist right away. Is this normal, or should I be concerned and get it checked? What would be the best course of action here?

Visit Gynaecologist immediately that could be incomplete abortion where few products of conception might be there ,get yourself checked and treated

I'm really worried about my wife; she's in her 9th month of pregnancy and has been dealing with a cough that's turned into something more over the past couple of months. It started as a dry cough, but now she ends up vomiting in short bursts right after she coughs. She's been taking Sandocal, uprise D3 1k, Ferosyl, and Grilinctus cough syrup. We've also tried antibiotics prescribed by doctors, but nothing seems to help. Can anyone explain what's going on or give us some advice on what to do next?

Yes, continue same treatment.
