Hello dear
Understand your concern
Bleeding after 4 week of abortion is not normal. Normally bleeding will stop with in 7 days. It should be use under advice of gynecologist to prevent complication. It may be continuous abortion process as hard clot about the size of a peach seed has been passed.
But you should consult the gynecologist and need USG scan for confirmation of retain product that may be bleed continuous in your case.
If it is there it should be treated by evacuation or D & C.
Healthy diet with iron supplements, proper rest, blood transfusion is given if required.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
