Took Cytotec. Passed Heavy Clot Of Blood With White Substance. Abortion Done?

I gave my girl cycotec to induce abortion and after 3 hours some heavy clot of blood with white substance, sizable came out of her vagina , it was scary and sizable, can I say the abortion has taken place and moreso how many more hours must she bleed, I meant the maximum limit for bleeding to be sure it s done and how soon can she run a urine test to confirm the abortion. Thank you

Hello, Welcome to HCM, I am Dr. Das.

Firstly, completion of abortion can not be assessed by the bleeding or material coming out.

In abortion, bleeding is the obvious manifestation and the woman has to bleed for minimum 5 to 7 days.

Ultrasound scan of whole abdomen is must for assessing the completion of abortion.

Regards.
