[/INST] HelloThanks for the query to Chat Doctor. Forum. You didn't mention the way of medical abortion as it was with the help of pills or D & C. Still feeling of the pain may be due to .1 Retained part of some placenta or piece of it. Diagnosis can be confirmed by ultrasound of uterus or physical examination by a gynecologist. As you mentioned that pain is mainly on the left side & also in thigh, so chances of retained portion may be there.2 The next possibility may be some injury on the left side. As you are complaining that pain is on the left side, so may be some injury to uterus or other parts on the left side. Diagnosis can be confirmed by ultrasound and physical examination.3 As you mentioned that pain is so severe that it develop nausea i.e. So some sort of infection may be (septicemia). In my opinion consult a gynecologist and get his opinion. Good luck.  </s>
