Hello,
thanks for using health care magic.
What you are experiencing is a complication of the abortion
and it is due to incomplete abortion. When there is incomplete
removal of the product of conception, bleeding results and it
is a serious condition. Bleeding complications are particularly
severe because if not well managed, you could develop
hemorrhagic anemia ( reduced blood ) and infection.
You should immediately see your doctor for an ultrasound to
confirm retain products and for a possible D & C plus antibiotics
and appropriate post abortal care.
Thanks and hope this helps you .
