Answer
Hello, roni,

Here are some ideas to ask your doctor about. I'm thinking you may have an infection. It is possible to get a sexually transmitted disease from abortion, or from having sex with someone who is infected. If the medicine you got "cured" you in the past, then you may have to do that again. But ask the doctor to run some more tests and figure out what it is for sure. Some sexually transmitted diseases cannot be cured, unfortunately.

I don't know what kind of resources you have available in Bangladesh. However, if I had this problem, I would try to find another remedy. The first thing that comes to mind is high doses of Vitamin D3 (50,000 units a day). Also, if it's a virus, Bentonite taken by mouth might help, in liquid form, a teaspoon several times. I also like putting five or ten drops of liquid grapefruit seed extract in water or juice, once or twice a day. If any of these appeal to you, you can try them, but I'm simply giving you my opinion. I can't give you medical advice. You may be able to get them by shopping on the internet.

There is also the possibility you had an internal injury, or there were adhesions (but chances are, whatever they did wouldn't cause adhesions). You could pull something and cause pain.

A woman will have white discharge during certain times of the month, but you shouldn't have it all the time.

Good luck in finding an answer, and please let me know what you find out and how you are doing.

Expertise

I can help women with the consideration of their decision, and with resources, and I can share my own experiences as the mother of seven and grandmother of eleven. My approach is to show love and concern, and help women work through the issues, emotional, spiritual, practical. I also help women deal with boyfriend and family issues. I am not a doctor, but I have done extensive medical research, so I may be able to help with information. I am female. When you write, if you are or were pregnant, please tell me how far along you were or are, and if you have had an abortion, please tell me what kind. Thank you.

Experience

I have been working with women who are considering abortion for several years. I also work with women who have had abortions. Our family has also experienced adoption, so I can talk about that as well.

Education/Credentials
I am mostly self-taught. I also studied midwifery for awhile. I have spent years doing research on this topic. In fact, I have been doing research and working in this area since the early 1970's. I have been helping women online for a few years, under the guidance of a woman who was formally training in counseling.
