You may expe­rience nipple pain whe­n breastfeeding. Imprope­r baby latching or infection can cause this condition. Ensure prope­r latching technique. Apply warm compress to bre­asts for relief. If discomfort persists, consult a gynecologist immediate­ly.

Please help me.11-12 days ago i took mifepristone. 24 hours later 800mcg misoprostol. And then 4 more doses of 400mcg misoprostol in 3 hours interval. after that, the next morning when i got up the embryonic sac with the embryo inside it came out of me without a single drop of blood. Only white fluids. I was 12 weeks pregnant. The embryo left me, sadly other pregnancy tissues and placenta did not. I did not bleed at all, not even a single drop of blood came out of me before or after the sac came out. After that, i waited and i am still waiting, no sign of blood. My placenta did not come out at all. No sign of any blood clots too. And no bleeding happened too. It has been 8 days today, since the embryo with the sac passed out of me. Still i did not bleed.I saw in google post partum hemorrhage happens due to retained placenta and people die if this is not treated. Placenta and pregnancy tissues did not come out. And did not bleed at all. Has anyone experienced this? I took more doses of misoprostol to make the placenta come out but they did not work at all. No sign of a single drop of blood still. Yesterday i touched my cervix and noticed that it is not dilated. Not even 1cm. Will exercises and more other things women do before labour for cervix dilation work for me? I am confused so much because my embryo came out, without embryo but with placenta inside, will my cervix dilation exercises work? Can anyone please answer what they think about this. I am overthinking so much. If anything similar like my condition happened with anyone, did the placenta and other pregnancy tissues come out from you after waiting? Is there anyone who waited naturally and become successful making the placenta out? It has been 8 days so i am worried. i want to wait 1 or 2 months more. I want to see if my cervix dilates though my embryo passed. I have read in google. that during menstrual period the cervix dilates very less. Only the blood can pass then. So here is another question i need to know the answer for, if i start bleeding after some days, is there any chance that my cervix will dilate very much then and the placenta will come out? Please tell me if anyone has experienced the same. Was waiting worth for anybody?

I’m 30 weeks pregnant and I found out I was pregnant in November I live in a state where abortion is illegal I seemed for help in other states and I couldn’t find the help I needed so now I was able to get a hold of the pills I took the first pill yesterday and I still need to take the 4 others but I’m scared and worried about what could happen if it can take me into labor or will they actually make a termination to the pregnancy

Female | 21

The pills you swallowed are supposed to terminate the pregnancy; however, this might not happen immediately. Sometimes you may go through cramps, bleed, or even pass out some tissues. It may take some hours or even days for all these to happen. Should it be that you are scared or maybe you are experiencing too much pain or bleeding heavily, please seek medical help as soon as possible.

I am spotting after ovulation

Female | 17

SPOTTING after OVULATION is NORMAL and COMMON due to HORMONE fluctuations... IMPLANTATION bleeding can also cause SPOTTING... Certain BIRTH CONTROL methods can cause SPOTTING... If SPOTTING is HEAVY or PAINFUL, CONSULT a DOCTOR...

I m 18 year old and having an irregular periods it doesn't follow a pattern sometimes it comes early or sometimes it is late

Female | 18

If you're experiencing irregular periods speak to your gynecologist. Getting irregular menstruation is common after you start menstruating. But if this is consistent then visit a gynec soon to find the reason and apt treatment for it
