How can you know if it's clean after taking medication?

Patient's question:

I am 17 and had some blood-like clots on the 19th, followed by 7 days of bleeding. I want to know how to determine if the bleeding has stopped completely. Currently, everything is normal.

Doctor's answer:

Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:
Go to the hospital for a follow-up ultrasound! If there is persistent bleeding and abdominal pain, it could indicate retained tissue in the uterus. It is recommended that you regularly go to the hospital for follow-up ultrasounds. The main reason for bleeding after medication abortion is generally determined through a gynecological examination and ultrasound. A pregnant woman should go to the hospital for a check-up 15 days after medication abortion. If necessary, an ultrasound examination and a urine pregnancy test should be performed to determine the effectiveness of the abortion. If abortion has not occurred within one week after taking the medication, or if vaginal bleeding significantly increases around the 10-day mark, or if bleeding continues for more than 3 weeks to 1 month, you should promptly go to the hospital for a check-up. For cases of failed or incomplete abortion, artificial abortion orD & C (dilation and curettage) surgery will be required, respectively.
