I had a medical abortion over a month ago and my bleeding lasted up to 2 weeks a few weeks later I started what i presume is my period, this has now been ongoing for 3 weeks, has anyone suffered the same symptoms and is this normal, my GP didnt tell me much as he is against abortions?

Yes it is normal and i understand what you are going through, everyone is different. It will slow down and get back to normal its just your body getting rid of what was there. If the bleeding gets really heavy then i would go back and see a different doctor. Every doctor is there to help and understand that different people different problems don't let anyone judge you. They can't comment until they have been there. If the bleeding gets really heavy then it could be an infection so you will need to get looked at. keep your chin up chick take care.

I have not had an abortion but it is normal to have bleeding 3-6 weeks after an abortion. If you doctor won't answer your questions because he is against them you should find another doctor. It is unethical to not answer a patients questions.
take care,
