Ok where to start...
7 weeks ago I found out I was having a missed miscarriage and was advised by my nurse to take the termination medication. Everything went how it 'should' have but I did have pains in my uterus and ovaries during it all. I had my first period after it had happened after around 5 weeks and that was same as usual, not any heavier and not really any more painful. I suffer from cysts on my ovaries and during ovulation I get sharp pains which I did get after my period as expected. However, 7 weeks on I'm still having sharp pains in my uterus/ovary area. I've contacted my GP and the advisory line at the hospital and both sets of professionals have told me it's all normal etc. I keep taking painkillers as instructed and have tried to push it to the back of my mind but I have various mental health issues and because of this all I keep thinking is what if there is something really wrong?! The nurse has said if i had retained any of the pregnancy I would have either passed it out naturally during my period or I'd have smelly discharge - both of which havent happened. I am producing abit more discharge but it's like this usually when I'm ovulating. I've taken 7 pregnancy tests since and all have said negative. The nurse did say if I had retained anything it should show up as positive on a pregnancy test. And surely if I had an infection or something wrong, I'd have known by now?
Did anyone else experience pains this far after a medical abortion? Or should I be worried? Is it possible it's just my anxiety making me think I'm having issues?🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
