Hi,
I understand your concern.
Cytotec is a drug which induces delivery/abortion. It does not have role in inducing menstruation.
You had delayed period for 2 months, without pregnancy test + ve. THis confirms absence of pregnancy.So the bleeding you had after Cytotec was not an induced abortion but your menstruation.(The bleeding you had was two days, without any clots & stopped in 4 days.)
The suspicion of incomplete abortion, can be excluded/ confirmed by USG lower abdomen. D & C would only be needed in case you find products of conception in USG.
Thanks.
