Urine test after abortion is very weakly positive

Many women will find that their urine test results are still positive after having an abortion, which may be a very weak positive, so they worry whether the abortion was not done cleanly. The cause of this situation is definitely the most concerning thing. So, what is the reason for the extremely weak positive urine test after abortion surgery?

In fact, it is a very common condition. It occurs because after an abortion, the hair on the woman's body becomes

This is because the membrane gonadotropin has not yet returned to the normal level. If the early pregnancy test still shows weak positive 2 weeks after the abortion, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a B-ultrasound examination.

1. Why is the urine test still positive after abortion?

After an abortion, because the body's estrogen levels have not completely dropped, the level of human chorionic gonadotropin in the blood has not yet dropped to normal. Therefore, within 15 days after the abortion, the pregnancy test paper will generally show positive or weak positive. This is normal and there is no need to worry. HCG can return to normal values ​​in about two weeks after abortion, and at the latest about 20 days. If it is found that it has not recovered for a long time after the operation, you should pay attention to whether there is still bleeding, and do a B-ultrasound examination to understand whether the abortion is incomplete or you are pregnant again after the abortion. Nowadays, it is normal for pregnancy test strips to show a weak positive.

It is recommended to go to the hospital immediately one week after the abortion for a follow-up gynecological ultrasound to see if there are any remnants of pregnancy in the uterine cavity. If the bleeding time is long, you should return for a checkup of blood chorionic villus to test gonadal hormone in about a month to pay attention to the possibility of trophoblastic disease. If the doctor sees detailed hairy tissue scraped out after the operation, there is no need to worry. Generally, the female hormones in the human body will gradually decrease after the abortion, so it is normal to have a positive urine test within 3 days after the abortion. It is recommended that you observe for a few more days. Generally, it will become negative after 7 days.

Pay attention to increasing nutrition, eat more fish, meat, eggs, etc. to promote the repair of the uterine wall.
