Should you be dilated in order to take castor oil?
You should not take castor oil or anything that might cause labor. Every woman is tired of being pregnant by the 8th month and wants it to be over. Let nature take its course, if you are not dilated, it is probably not time for the baby to come. If the baby is premature it could have many problems. Nature/God designed pregnancy to last 40 weeks for many reasons, Labor should not be induced unless the pregnancy is endangering the mothers health, and then only by the doctor. Besides, chances are you will only have diarrhea, castor oil is ineffective at inducing labor.
People like you make me laugh. You can't get signs of pregnancy till 2 weeks later and it won't show up on a pregnancy test straight away. I think your just parnoid and kidding yourself.
If you miss your period or you start vomiting that's a pregnancy sign.
Some people get pregnant 6 weeks after the pill and others don't till a few months.
If it is your first pregnancy can you lose the baby?
About half of all early miscarriages happen because of a problem in the way your genetic material (chromosomes) combined when your egg and your partner's sperm has joined during fertilisation. You may never find out why this has happened, but it's more likely to be due to chance than to any underlying problem with either you or your partner.Imbalances in pregnancy hormones, problems with your immune system, and some infections such as listeriosis (Listeria infection) and malaria are also thought to make miscarriages more likely. Miscarriages become more common as you get older, because egg quality decreases with age. If you drink alcohol while you're pregnant, your risk of having a miscarriage is higher. It's also higher with multiple pregnancies, such as twins. Smoking may increase the risk of miscarriage, so you should stop smoking during pregnancy.There isn't enough evidence to show whether or not stress is a risk factor for miscarriage, but it's a good idea to take time during the day to relax.Doing moderate exercise or having sex whilst you're pregnant doesn't increase your risk of miscarriage.You're slightly less likely to have a miscarriage if you previously took the contraceptive pill.Often you won't know what has caused your miscarriage. If you have already started to miscarry there is very little that can be done to prevent it.
Why it is still showing positive still to my pregnancy test after 2 months ago of taking cytotek?
Did you go to the checkup 2 weeks after the abortion? Then you would know if it worked or not. If you didn't go you could still be pregnant. By now you should have gotten your period back. See a doctor.
Do you have to go to the hosiptial if you miscarry in early pregnancy?
You don't need to go to the hospital, but need to see your doctor ASAP to verify it was not atopic or tubal. Those can be very dangerous to your health. However, most early miscarriages complete naturally and need no treatment.
Can douching cause miscarriages?
No. But douching should never be done whether you are pregnant or not. You make it easier to get infections by disrupting the natural bacteria flora in the vagina. And then you might have a miscarriage. Douching is not needed. The vagina is self cleaning.
How long will Hcg remain in your system after a miscarriage?
It depends but its usually out of your system within 4 weeks. HCG levels after a miscarriage, delivery or abortion will decrease by 99% of their previous levels within 2 weeks. After four weeks following full term delivery the levels wil be undetectable in 3-4 weeks. If an abortion occurs at 8-10 weeks when the HCG level is the highest, then it may still be detectable for as long as 40 days.
What are some ways to help the grieving process of a miscarriage?
- Losing a baby is a heartbreaking, but often it is natures way and you did nothing wrong and it is not your fault. This explanation of course does not matter to the woman who has lost her baby. It is a grieving process the mother has to get over and, in time she will and it is natural to go through it. There is light at the end of the tunnel because if she sees her doctor and she is physically fit there is no reason she cannot get pregnant again quite quickly and have a healthy baby. If she should get pregnant again she will be closely monitored by her doctor and perhaps a specialist. Right now you have every right to be heartbroken and have several good cries and talk to your husband/boyfriend about it or a good friend and then with all the strength you have try getting out again and more active and try for another baby.
No Cortal is like aspirin. It does not work as a contraceptive or for abortion. Cortal contains acetylsalicylic acid 500 mg, caffeine 30 mg (aspirin and caffeine). Overdose of Cortal can cause delayed labor, liver and heart damage for your baby, and liver damage to you. It does not cause miscarriages or end pregnancy.

suppose to regulate your period...
What it does is making the cervix soft. That is how it's used to get your period back. Some think they can use it for abortion but once the egg is attached to the uterine wall it's too late.
When is the right time to conceive again after a miscarriage of a five month old baby?
the best time to conceive is NEVER because when you get pregnant, you get AIDS
that happened to me i took a pregnancy test 2 weeks or maybe 3 after unprotected sex when i first took the test just one line popped up then when i went back it was faintly positive then maybe a week after my late period i started bleeding very heavily and took 3 more test and they where all negative and when i went to my docter i found out i miscarried == == Unfortunately if you test very early you can get a positive hpt then bleed very heavy cause the egg did not take then you can get a neg. cause the baby is no longer there. That is the reason why most doctors do not like to test early. This has happened to a lot of women when they didn't even know it cause they get there period like normal.
Can I be pregnant after having a miscarriage 3 weeks ago?
Yes you could be pregnant again. I had a miscarriage July 19 (with a D&C) and was pregnant two to three weeks later with no period cycle in between. I am now 7 weeks and 4 days. Take a test it is the only way you will will know. And if it is negative wait a few days and take another one. My first test was on Sunday, it was negative, second test the following Thursday, it was positive.
Have you taken steroids to prevent early miscarriage?
I will be taking steroids in my upcoming Frozen Embryo Transfer. I've previously had one unsuccessful IVF, and a second that resulted in a pregnancy, but ended in miscarriage at 8 weeks.
Will castor oil help you have a miscarrage?
Just because Castor oil might start labor when you are fully gone, does not mean it can be used in abortion. It can not.
If you do have bleeding while pregnant will you also get cramps?
it depends cause evry1 different but i think you can still kate any time you bleed while pregnant you should call your doctor asap--and with cramp this is serious you should go straight to the E.R. asap--wish you good health
There are few uses of a lemon that I can think of that would prevent pregnancy. The only thing that comes to mind is the old saw about holding it between your knees and not letting go.

Is a heavy period while having chlamydia a sign of a miscarriage?
Yes, chlamydia can cause a miscarriage.
Not surprisingly, evidence suggests that it is a good idea to do whatever you can to not have chlamydia during pregnancy. Previous chlamydia infection may double the risk of ectopic pregnancy, in part by increasing the risk of pelvic inflammation.
As far as typical miscarriage goes, there is some evidence that chlamydia infection could also play a role. In a 2008 review, researchers concluded that evidence suggests that several microorganisms similar to chlamydia may be related to miscarriage. And researchers in 2007 also uncovered a possible biological mechanism by which Chlamydia trachomatosis, the strain that causes the STD known as chlamydia, could cause miscarriage by attacking early pregnancy cells, although more research is needed to flesh out the concept.
To add to that, according to the CDC, chlamydia can increase the risk of preterm delivery. In short, although researchers do not fully understand the relationship between chlamydia and miscarriage, getting treatment is always a good idea if you have the disease. If you feel you have symptoms of chlamydia or that you may be at risk, promptly talk to your doctor about testing and treatment.
Is it a sign of pregnancy if you are having contraction-like cramps?
I have contraction like cramps,and I just found out I was pregnant, but a good idea wood be to take a HPT to determine the pregnancy,If it says negative and you still haven't started your period wait a week and try again, if you still haven't contact your doctor.

There is no way to truly know if you have had a miscarriage unless a pregnancy was confirmed, and then it was confirmed that you were no longer pregnant, that being said some women just feel or know they are pregnant before they get a home test. almost 30% of pregnancies end in a very early miscarriage, where your period may only start a day or two late or even right on time, most of these pregnancies go undetected, though with the early tests available now, more of them are being discovered. Even in detected pregnacies the risk of miscarriage runs about 15-20%, once a heartbeat has been detected, the risk dramatically reduces. http://health.yahoo.com/ency/healthwise/hw44090/hw44092 http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/preconception/114276 ~pawsalmighty
You won't. If it was so early you didn't even know for sure you were pregnant although very sad it should not affect your future fertility. If it keeps happening however you should see a doctor as you may have a problem.
When you lose your baby after being four months pregnant can you have a funeral?
Obviously, if the body was intact, yes, according to the Catholic church. The child would be baptized and probably given a name. the body would have to be buried in consecrated grounds, many cemeteries have a special juvenile section. whether there would be a viewing would depend on the condition of the body and the attitudes of the parents. The Mass used(church funeral) would be what is called a Mass of The Angels. It is a tragic circumstance, not to be confused with surgically removed dysfunctional body parts which are of course, medical waste, not (Soul body)I know of one such incident, the stillborn child was given the name of Karl.
Left Side cramps that come and go okay during pregnancy?
Cramping during pregnancy, unfortunately, can mean multiple things; some are okay and some are not so good. It can be gas, constipation, your uterus growing; signs of an ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, and the list can go on and on. If the cramping continues and it concerns you too much you should contact your doctor.
