I had a medical abortion in December 2017 and I still have not gotten my periods. I have taken a pregnancy test every month and it has been negative. What should I do and how can I get my periods back?

Absence of periods for this long needs thorough evaluation. Could be Ashermans syndrome (uterine lining scarring) or hormonal suppression. Get a Pelvic Ultrasound to check uterus and endometrium. Do hormone tests: TSH, FSH, Prolactin, and LH. Consult a gynecologist for further treatment like hormonal therapy or hysteroscopy.
