General & Family Physician,  's  Response
hello,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
As you have already started bleeding, it will go on just like your usual period. that is for 4-5 days with decrease in flow gradually.
Once the bleeding stopped it will mean that your abortion has completed and there is no product of conceptus inside and your next menstrual cycle will begin.
If you do not stop bleeding for 1 week, then it is possible you had incomplete abortion and may will need to consult a gynecologist for further management.
97 % of females attain complete abortion with the medicines.
So, once you stop bleeding after 4 to 5 day you will know that abortion has completed and your next cycle has begun.
Hope i have answered your query well.
Thank you
