Hello dear
Understand your concern
Yes you should have to consult gynecologist as your bleeding is continue after 7 days of using abortion pill. Abortion pill should be used under observation and guidance of gynecologist.
There may be chance of incomplete abortion that should be diagnosed by USG scan and should be treated by the D & C.
In case of failure you can not continue the pregnancy as it cause deformity and cardiac defect in fetus so it should be terminated by D & C.
So consultancy with gynecologist is necessary for special treatment
Hope this may help you
Best regards
