A member asked:

Is it normal to have a period 5 weeks after medical abortion and again 7 weeks after? with brown spotting in between

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: You need to contact the abortion provider and discuss this symptom and possible be re-examined to be sure the procedure was complete.
