Brief Answer:
Abortion appears to be completed

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I read your query and I understand your concerns.

Following is my reply:

1) You abortion is likely to be complete.

2) If there are no more bouts of heavy bleeding wait for a week for bleeding to stop.

3) If bleeding doesnot stop by one week, go to get ultrasound scan for confirming completion of abortion.

Let me know if you have anymore questions.
