After taking medication for an abortion, if the urine test is still positive, is it already clean?

Patient's question:

After taking medication for an abortion, if there is no bleeding after ten days, and a urine test still shows positive, is it already clean? If it's not clean, what consequences will it have if you leave it untreated? First follow-up question: Ten days later, the test shows a weak positive. Is it clean?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, it takes about 2 weeks after a miscarriage for a urine test to show negative. Therefore, your situation is within the normal range. After medication-induced abortion, women should have a follow-up examination at the hospital around 10-15 days. If necessary, they should undergo ultrasound and urine pregnancy tests to determine the effectiveness of the abortion. It is recommended that women be cautious when considering medication-induced abortion. You can go to the hospital for an examination and choose an appropriate abortion method based on your pregnancy duration, gestational sac size, and other factors, following medical advice.
