ANSWER: Hello, Paari,
I think you probably realize your problem is not normal. You should be having regular periods, and not this unexpected bleeding. The pills obviously made a mess of your body, probably your hormones. I don't find this surprising.
Working out can often start bleeding when there is an abnormality. The abdominal muscles contract, and if there is blood in the uterus, this may squeeze it out. But obviously, the blood has to be there in the first place. Normally, the lining in the uterus will form over most of the month, and then it will break down, and you won't bleed until it breaks down.
The only thing I can recommend is that you go to the doctor and have him check your hormones thoroughly, and look for possible injuries to the uterus. Sometimes the pills rupture the uterus, although I would think the pain would let you know something is wrong. But since pain is expected, a woman might not realize it was abnormally strong. It is not that common for a pill abortion to work at 8 weeks. The doctor should check you thoroughly for all possible causes.
I hope things work out for you. Please keep in mind that these pills are basically poisonous for a pregnant woman, and can actually kill her. Be careful; don't ever use the pills again. Make sure you stay away from private places where sex is possible. In Dubai, an unmarried woman who becomes pregnant has almost no decent choices, so the only way to live without fear is to wait until marriage for sex. Please take care of yourself. Let me know what the doctor finds.

AnswerHello, Paari,
You're welcome.
It would be best if you saw a doctor reasonably soon. You need to find out what is wrong.
Losing weight is not easy, but you don't have to worry about losing weight if you are eating right. If you eat your protein at the beginning of the meal, and vegetables next, and stop eating pasta, bread, and other carbohydrates, you will probably lose bad weight slowly but automatically. Don't eat any fruit for the first few weeks. Don't drink fruit juice at all. Once you start to eat fruit again, continue to eat fruit but not drink fruit juice. This will be a healthier diet for you. I imagine you like naan, but if you want to lose weight, you will need to stop eating it for awhile. You should also not overcook your vegetables. Indian cuisine tends to include overcooked vegetables, but these don't have as much nutrition as vegetables that are cooked less. The curries are good for you, so keep eating them. Don't put sugar in your food. I think some chutneys have sugar. You also need to be eating at least milk or cheese, and eggs. If you are eating nothing but vegetarian food, you are suffering from malnutrition, and one of the consequences can be gaining too much weight. I can talk more about all of this if you want.
In the future, should you get pregnant again, don't even consider abortion. Your prior experience could be part of the reason you gained weight. Abortion is dangerous and can kill you. If it doesn't kill you, it can cause some very expensive medical problems. Your children need their mother, and you need to take care of yourself. Having a third child is not too much. You can also always give the child to Mother Teresa's group, and they will find a home.
I will be here any time you need to talk. Please take care, and let me know how you are doing.
