Hello,
Following medical abortion, it takes time 4-6 weeks for complete resolution and brown or faint bloody discharge may be related to old blood or retained tissue, pelvic infection etc.
Here, I suggest you to undergo one USG scan to check for retained bits or clotted element (if any). In such case, D & C may be required and you must consult with your gynecologist. Maintain genital hygiene. Good luck.
