Hello,
As per your query, you have symptoms of metallic taste in the mouth after a medical abortion which is either due to incomplete abortion and retained products.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to visit your physician once and get ultrasound done. You should also get HCG levels monitored as well. You might need further dosage of medication.
Till then, chew on sugar free candies and take diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables. Drink plenty of fluids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
