Hello dear
Understand your concern
First advice is that always use abortion pill under advice of gynecologist to prevent complication and failure risk.
Bleeding with clots suggests that abortion process is started. Normally abortion process will complete in 3-5 days. So minor bleeding will continue for 4-5 days and maximum for 7 days.
Follow up at 7th day to gynecologist is required and
At 14th day USG should be done for confirmation of complete process of abortion.
So consult the gynecologist after 14 days for USG scan
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
