Hi,
Thanks for consulting us.
I think you should report it urgently to your doctor as this can be a sign of uterine perforation, which is a known but rare complication of surgical abortion.
Also have one pelvic ultrasound to exclude this possibility & exclude undiagnosed ectopic pregnancy.
Hope you get well soon.
