Hi, I have gone through your question. Abortion by medical method takes almost 2 weeks to complete.
Since your girlfriend is having bleeding till today, the process of abortion has still not completed.This is the reason why the urine pregnancy test is still showing a faint positive test line.
I would suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist so that she can be properly examined and ultrasound done to assess the completeness of abortion, and do it surgically if required in case of incomplete abortion or excessive bleeding.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
