Brief Answer:
Normal study.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for posting your query.

Anteversion is the position of the uterus in the pelvis and is the commonest one observed. The uterus after pregnancy remains bulky as the muscular wall of the uterus thickens during pregnancy.

Involution of the uterus occurs after an abortion or delivery, yet, the size of a non-pregnant uterus is never achieved.

Your sonogram report shows normal study at this stage. The abortion has been successful with no retained products. There is no need to be worried. You may relax.

Please use regular contraception further on until you wish to conceive. Maintain a healthy weight and a healthy diet.

Hope your query has been clarified. Please feel free to contact for further information. I will be happy to help.

regards,
Shanti.V.
