Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on health care magic.
I recommend you to get a transvaginal ultrasound done.
If retained retained blood clots is more than 15 mm, D and C is required.
If it is less than 15 mm, nothing needs to be done. You can take tablets for 1 more week.
Hope this helps.
regards,
DR Nilofer
