Hi lybrate-user. The hormones can take upto 2 weeks post abortion to decline to undetectable levels. Till then the test will show positive result only. Only after 2 weeks if still positive then probably the procedure is still incomplete. To confirm, ultrasound is the best measure to assess if the abortion is complete or not.

You have not taken the medicines as per schedule. In this scenario, I would say it should work but nothing can be said or done immediately. Best would be to wait and watch for sometime.

The abortion pills can have these effects. Trust your treating doctor or else upload the usg report and contact me. Incomplete abortion is a real risk with these pills.

You could be still pregnant
Depends on how much misoprost you took, what weeks of pregnancy you were. Better to get an ultrasound done for confirmation.

First you should confirm your pregnancy by urine pregnancy test and an ultrasound ,if it is positive you will have bleeding in 7 to 10 days, if it is negative then there is no complication, you could have nausea ,vomiting and abdominal pain.

The ideal way of taking MTP is to take tab mifepristone followed by 4 tab of miso after 48 hr of mife. All 4 tab taken together give the best results. But there are other methods also of taking misoprost, like taking 2 tab of miso followed by other 2 after 6 hr. And many more. Yes it is necessary to take all 4 tab of miso.

Asked for male, 30 years old from Delhi

I am 12 weeks and 5 days pregnant. And it is an unwanted pregnancy so for an abortion we went to a gynecologist she said you have to take misoprostol before d&c 24 hours before. So when I searched about that it causes abortion automatically and opens the cervix and expels out fetus and then after 24 hours d&c is done by doctor. But my question is that is it necessary to get d&c done after taking dosage of misoprostol or simply wait for next menses. And regular check by ultrasound that abortion is complete or not. Kindly help me in this situation what to do?

Actually it is better to abort in early weeks rather than waiting for long.After 12 weeks it really becomes a complicated procedure.Placental tissues will form more after 12 weeks and chances of them getting adherent or retained is more.To ensure completeness your doctor must have advised Dand C after the abortion.It is not that easy to abort a live pregnancy.
