Periods changed after abortion

I'm just wondering if any other ladies have deal with similar?
I had a MA on 6th January I was 8 weeks and it went pretty smoothly. I did have a small amount of tissue left over and took a second dose of misoprostol a week after which seemingly did the job.
I have relatively short cycles at 26 days and I've had 2 periods since the MA both of them start off light, then day 2/3 becomes really heavy and clotty bits. Then gets lighter and stops. Mostly it's very similar to my usual periods but the clotty bits not so much.
I'm aware I am ovulating as I am unfortunate enough to feel ovulation pains, and my pregnancy tests were negative 5 weeks after the MA.
Since the abortion if I orgasm even if just clitotal I spot a tiny bit, as in just tinted pink discharge, one or 2 wipes and gone
Has anyone experienced their periods being off after the MA? I am in my third cycle and I expected that it would be back to normal by now really

Yes mine never went back to normal and are really heavy and clotty now. GP says it’s a coincidence and not linked to abortion but put it down to perimenopause and hormonal changes.
