Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
The remnants now cannot turn into a pregnancy.
That is impossible.
Remnants after a medical abortion can be managed in two ways.
If the remnant size is not significant, ie, it is less than 15 mm in measurement, then further dosage of medical abortion pills can be taken.
That would probably expel the contents.
If not, then if the size is significantly more than 15 mm, surgical abortion would be needed.
