Why does the pregnancy test show pregnant on the third day of medication abortion?

Patient's question:

I had a medication-induced miscarriage, and the gestational sac has come down now. It's been three days, but why does the test still show pregnancy when I use it?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the abortion rate of medication-induced abortion is relatively low, and it is prone to complications such as incomplete abortion and excessive bleeding after the procedure. If the medication abortion is incomplete, a D&C (dilation and curettage) surgery is required, which can cause secondary harm to the body. We advise women to be cautious about medication-induced abortion. You can go to the hospital for a check-up and choose an appropriate abortion method based on factors such as the duration of pregnancy and the size of the gestational sac, following medical advice.
