Is Intermittent Bleeding With Blood Clots Normal After Abortion?
I got an abortion ten days ago, and these past few days I have woken up with headaches and feeling very nauseated. Also, I bled for a day, and then three days after that i started again but only for 2 days. I havnt bled for a full day, and this morning i woke up with a blood clot in my underwear. Is this normal?

Hello dear
Understand your concern.
Bleeding at 10th day after abortion is not normal. Normally bleeding will stop after 7 days.Headache is mainly due to side effects of pill but it will disappear after 3-4 days as abortion will complete.
There may be possibility of retain product with infections.
You should consult the gynecologist and need
USG for confirmation of retain products (treated by D & C) and swab test for confirmation of infections (treated by antibiotics).
Take healthy diet with iron supplementsand proper rest
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
