Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
After an abortion, since your copper coil has got expelled and heavy bleeding is there, an incomplete abortion is likely. You need to get an ultrasound scan done to check for any retained products. The treatment will depend on the findings.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
