Definitely take folic acid 5 mg daily .
Ultrasound urgent if severe pain lower abdomen / bleeding / fainting attack .
If no problems, see a gynaecologist after 2-3 weeks .
U can opt for paid teleconsultation for more detailed discussion due to the lockdown situation in the country . The blood tests can be done now .
