Can cinnamon actually work as a natural way to end a pregnancy? I tested positive on a home test a couple of days ago and I'm not really looking to keep the pregnancy going. I'm thinking about natural options since it's really early, like just a week or two. Do these natural methods really work, and if so, how much cinnamon powder would I need to use?

Using cinnamon as a natural means of abortion is not recommended as it can be unsafe and ineffective. It is important to seek medical advice for safe and appropriate options for terminating a pregnancy. I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for further guidance and support.

I'm taking Novelon for 21 days as prescribed by my doctor. My gynecologist told me to come in on the first day of my period, but I'm wondering how long it'll take to see improvement with my PCOS. Could you let me know what to expect?

Novelon is often prescribed to help regulate menstrual cycles and manage symptoms of PCOS. It may take a few cycles (usually 2-3 months) to see noticeable improvements in hormonal balance and menstrual regularity. It's important to follow up with your gynecologist for further guidance and monitoring as your treatment progresses.

I've been trying to get pregnant for the past year. We've already done a semen analysis and HSG, and now we're doing a follicular study. We're in the second cycle now. My doctor has me on Mvista Maturova tablets from day 2 to day 7. Just two days ago, on day 13, my follicle was 24mm, and after an HCG injection and starting Susten tablets (2 daily for 15 days), my ultrasound showed a 32 mm cyst. It's causing me some ovary pain, and I'm pretty worried. Can you explain what this cyst might mean? What steps should we take next?
