What Causes Positive Result In Pregnancy Test After An Abortion?

Question: I did an abortion on december 16 and i did a pregnacy test amd still show positive
Brief Answer:
This is normal
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
increased levels of beta chorionic gonadotropin (the hormone that pregnancy tests detect) may remain high for 4 weeks after abortion but there are reports that they may remain high for even longer than that.
So it's normal to have a positive pregnancy test without being pregnant. There is no way you could be pregnant after an abortion...
I hope I've helped!
Kind Regards!
