Can periods start immediately after MTP?

2022-01-19 02:11:20
My friend had undergone MTP and bled heavily for 6 days which tapered off by her 8th day. There was no bleeding on the 9th and 10th day but heavy bleeding resumed on the 11th day and is continuing. It's her 14th day since abortion today but she is unable to do the scan due to continued bleeding. Is it possible that this her periods or is a part of the abortion process? If not, when is she likely to get her next periods?

I am afraid, the bleeding continuing for 14 days after MTP signifies incomplete abortion. She should have an ultrasound examination to confirm that uterus is really empty.
