Hi
Greetings.
I understand your concern. You had a medical abortion 5 months back after confirming an intrauterine pregnancy
It is normal to have some fluid in Pouch of Douglas. That has nothing to do with your previous abortion as the present scan is otherwise normal.
Had there been any ectopic pregnancy now (which is possible) or any other abnormalities of ovary,tubes or other organs need to do have follow up.
There can be mild collection normally during ovulation also.
So if you are menstruating normally with out pain abdomen and nausea ,need not worry about the mild fluid collection.hope my answer helps you. Regards

Hello dear
Understand your concern.
Bleeding and cramps may be continue for 7-9 days after using abortion pills.
Your period may be become irregular or heavy/light.
So you should not have sex at least two weeks. or once the period become regular you can start sex.
But consult the gynecologist and do follow up USG for incomplete abortion and prevent other complication of abortion kit.
Use safer sex practice to avoid unwanted pregnancy.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
