Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood the concern. Firstly, I would like to mention that self-medication should not be done to induce a medical abortion since this can lead to incomplete abortion, heavy bleeding, infection and future infertility problems. The products are very small during 5-6 weeks of pregnancy. So, they cannot be differentiated from an ordinary blood clot. To know if the process is complete, you need to get a trans-vaginal sonogram. Please see a specialist for further help. Take care.
