  1. Hello,
    Today I’m going to see a gyno, because after the pill I’ve been having chills, cold then hot, and the pain is unbelievable. My question is, will I lose the weight gain, I can’t see my self this way… If I seriously exercise and eat healthy, can I lose weight? I have been on google, every women has said, its impossible. Have any tips?

    1. Hello Sophia, yes weight loss can be induced by exercising and eating healthy once you stick to a diet and you are consistent with exercising.

  2. Hi, I had abortion February 21, 2018. Till this day I’m very bloated. Is it the pregnancy hormones, very scared don’t know if it’s normal.

    1. Hello Elizabeth, yes sometimes bloating happens for weeks even after an abortion in women.

      1. Hi there,

        I had a surgical abortion done this past Saturday.
        I was only five weeks , it was quick.
        I had bleeding after of course.
        But no bleeding since, I have had cramping on and off as well as lower back pain.
        I have not had morning sickness which is wonderful.
        Just wondering if it is normal?

  3. I took abortion pills (misoprostol) on the 15&16th March as directed by my healthcare provider and up till 17th March I have not had any bleeding.what could be the problem

    1. Hello Ngozi, this could simply mean that abortion was not initiated. Please see your healthcare provider regarding this.

  4. Hi my LMP was january 22. I didnt got a positive preganancy test but i got spotting on feb 22 which supposed to be my next period i got scared so we immediately ask our doctor for a medical abortion so we got 8 pills took them 4 tablets 800mg 3 hours apart, after that i only excreted like a yellowish mucus and bled but no clot just regular blood. Is it possible that im not pregnant? Today march 22 supposed to be my next period but i havent got it today. I took 5 hpt all negative and a laboratory urine test all negative. Am i not pregnant? Im freaking out because im not sure if im pregnant or i have a hormonal problem. Thanks for the answer.

    1. Hi there Jan, if the tests were taken 7 days after your missed period and showed pregnant then more than likely you are not pregnant.

  5. I was 6 weeks pregnant, I took cytotec and I bled, but I was feeling pregnant, so I did an ultrasound scan, It said I had missed abortion. So I was told to take cytotec and bled a lot. But I still feel bloated in my tummy.

    1. Hello Wealth, repeat a pregnancy test to confirm that you have in fact aborted. However feeling bloated is normal after an abortion.

  7. Hi, I took the abortion pills over four weeks ago, I bleed for 4-5 days, then developed an infection, went to the doctor, he gave me antibiotics, after taking them the infection went away, yet I am still experiencing pregnancy symptoms, and extremely bloated, could it be the abortion is incomplete?
