Brief Answer:
Can use Ovral G for 3 months

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
See, after a medical abortion, your wife will have some form of irregular bleeding or spotting for 1 - 2 months.
It is natural.
Just make sure that a repeat USG is done after the D and C also, to check that all remnants are completely removed.
If the USG is normal, then please do not worry.
You can continue using Ovral - G for 3 months continuously, as that will help in regulating periods.
All the best.
Please feel free to discuss further.
