Hi, thanks for your query in HCM.
Coming to your concern, successful abortion can only be confirmed through ultrasound abdomen by checking if there is any retained product of conception or pregnancy. If your bleeding and cramps has already stopped, instead of taking another dose of medicine, it is better to go for Ultrasound abdomen to confirm.
Thank you
