I am 9 weeks pregnant and at 6 weeks, an ultrasound measured 5 weeks and some days with a detectable heartbeat. My two Beta HCG tests at 8 weeks and 8 weeks 2 days were 17,000 and 21,113 respectively. My doctor advised termination, stating the pregnancy is not viable and refused further ultrasounds. Is this approach correct?

I was supposed to get my period 4 days ago but it hasn't come. I want to start birth control pills and was told to start on the first day of my period. Since my period is delayed, the doctor said I can start the pill now and skip this period as I will be traveling in 5 days and do not want to have my period then. I took the first pill yesterday. Should I stop taking the pill or continue? Will my period still come since I started the pill just before getting my period?

I had an improperly placed IUD removed one week after an irregular period. Since then, I have experienced light spotting, intermittent bleeding, and symptoms similar to pregnancy such as painfully tender breasts, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and persistent cramping and bloating. I have taken two home pregnancy tests, both of which were negative. What could be causing these symptoms if I'm not pregnant?

I started my period almost a week ago and it's unusually heavy, causing extreme cramping and requiring a lot of menstrual products. I've experienced this before and was told I was fine after an ultrasound. What could be causing this and what should I do?
