Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Some amount of spotting or bleeding is common for 2 or 3 weeks after a medical abortion.
To know if some tissue or fetal material is still inside the uterine cavity, the only definitive way is to have a pelvic ultrasound scan.
That will confirm if the uterine cavity is empty.
All the best.
Please feel free to discuss further.
