Hi,
Firstly, induction of a medical abortion should be done under the guidance of a qualified personnel. Secondly, the pregnancy should be confirmed to be intrauterine through a sonogram and the age determined before you take any medication. If you have done these, you may have aborted on the same day if the dosage was sufficient. Pregnancy test can still be positive as the hormone levels take some time to return to normal. You should now get a confirmation of the conclusion of abortion from your consultant through a pelvic exam and a sonogram. Hope this helps.
