Bleeding after the abortion

On average, women bleed for 9 -14 days after doing a medical abortion. Some women bleed or pass clots for as long as 4 weeks. After the first few days of more intense bleeding some women will have little or no bleeding, some will have bleeding that stops and starts, and others will have bleeding similar to a menstrual period for several weeks.  If there are no symptoms of complications the bleeding, even if it lasts longer, is not dangerous and it is safe to wait for it to stop on its own. ³⁰
