Brief answer....you must consult a doctor and get the remnant product of conception removed by surgical means.
Detailed answer...
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have read your query and understand your concern.
I have seen your report and it clearly states that medical abortion was not complete and some products of conception are still retained in your uterus.
Treatment involves removal of remnants by a small surgical procedure called as D&C.
This is very small procedure and can be done easily without getting admitted in the hospital.
Consult your doctor regarding this.
Don't try any medication for medical abortion anymore because it won't yield any success now.
I hope it helps,however you are most welcome to revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks

Hello,
Normal endometrial thickness varies in different phases of monthly cycle.
D& C is basically a surgery where you scrape out the contents of uterus.
It is done generally under a very short general anesthesia and time taken for the surgery is just 15-20 minutes.
Effect of anesthesia lasts for couple of hours only.
Thanks
