Unknown: Abortion clinics are not held to the same standards as other medical/surgical facilities. The abortion procedure is often performed in a substandard manner. You need to be examined by a residency trained OB/GYN to see if you need further care. You may need some post abortion counseling. Care Confidential is a UK based pregnancy & post-abortion support agency. Best wishes to you Christine.

Unclear: If the spotting continues to improve then I would expect for your to be done within 1 week. It is always possible that you may have had some retained clots in the uterus, prolonging the bleeding. Be in contact with your doctor and call for any signs of fever, pain or increased bleeding.
