Brief Answer:
Dont worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I read your query and understand your concerns.

Following is my reply:

1) Distended stomach has nothing to do with your abortion. There is no entity whatsoever which might lead to distention of abdomen after aboertion.

2) The slight variation in fat might appear your abdomen to look little big.

30 Dont worry about it and get an ultrasound scan done on your next followup to confirm completion of abortion.
