Hi,
While doing Medical abortion -how many weeks of pregnancy? They gave IV anesthesia or spinal -these also concern with your complains.
During the procedure, they keep you in Lithotomy position stretching your legs and thighs. May be that cause lumbar vertebra compression on nerves and causing pain. Better consult your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
