Hello dear Understand your concern Normally bleeding will stops 4-6 days after using pill. To prevent complication it should be used under supervision of gynecologist after getting expert opinion. Following are the causes of prolonged bleeding after 7 days: 1. Incomplete abortion/retain product of pregnancy: some time some part of pregnancy product may remain inside and bleeds continuously. I think inadequate dose of abortion pill in your case lead to incomplete abortion. Diagnosis should made by USG scan and treated by D & C. 2. Vaginal /pelvic infections: incomplete abortion increase risk of infection. Diagnosis is made by swab test and CBC.Complete antibiotic course require for treatment. 3. Ectopic pregnancy: Abortion pill fail to abort the incomplete abortion and bleeds prolonged. Diagnosed by USG scan and treated by Sugery and blood transfusion 4. Molar pregnancy: Placental cell get invaded in endometrium and convert in to malignancy. Diagnosed by USG and Blood HCG. Treatment is surgery plus chemotherapy. So consult the gynecologist as early as possible to diagnose and treatment of above causes Hope this may help you Best regards Dr. Sagar
