Hi,
I understand your query.
IN case of incomplete abortion I , bleeding does not stop before every thing is out. In your case you have gone for medical abortion,had bleeding on 22ndAugust. This was followed by normal periods I don't see possibility of abortion here.
- You can clear your doubt by USG lower abdomen.
- Repeat your pregnancy test after a week.
Hormonal imbalance is another thing which causes such problem. if the irregularity of periods continues, you have to consult a Gynecologist & take treatment for ir.
Thanks.
