Answer
Hi Shazia :)

I think the standard would be to redo the d%c. The risk for complications is minor-many women in america had their abortions done this way before it was legalized, and if it's performed by a trained doctor, the risk is quite minimal. The biggest risk is that of discomfort! And while not dangerous, the bleeding and cramps may be uncomfortable. You'd be at higher risk of complications if you *didn't* follow up on this.
