Hello Thanks for writing to us with your health concern. A pregnancy test can be positive for upto 4 - 6 weeks after an abortion. It is not reliable to test if the abortion was complete or not. The only reliable way to check for completion of pregnancy is to have a transvaginal ultrasound scan. That will tell you if the uterine cavity is empty or not. All the best Take care.
