Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion as the bleeding stopped there might be incomplete abortion.So first ultrasound need to be done to see the status of conceptive products.Then if retained products are found then D&C need to be done.I suggest you never take medicines for abortion on your own as they are associated with complications like heavy bleeding,incomplete abortion etc.Always take them under doctor supervision.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
