Answer
You have to ask the entire question. I do not have access to your previous question. It does not matter when your period was "supposed to be here". When was the date of your last period? Was the abortion on January 10. If so and you have not had a period since then, it is impossible to know when you will get a period. Usually, after an abortion, you will get your next period within 4-6 weeks. If you have not gotten a period since January 28 (43 days) I would get a pregnancy test. If it is negative, ask your doctor to induce your period for you. If it is positive, you will have to then take two blood tests for pregnancy (Beta HCG) 48 hours apart to see if this is a new pregnancy or if there is merely some residual HCG in your blood. If the value of HCG rises in 48 hours, it is a new pregnancy. if the value of HCG falls in 48 hours, it means that there is merely some residual HCG from the previous pregnancy.
