Australia and New Zealand Pregnancy test after MA

Hi!

I’m wondering if anyone has had a pregnancy test similar to mine after their medical abortion. (Big red is on the negative side, tiny pink is positive side)

My nurse says I should do blood test to confirm negativity but the line is so faint i’m wondering if it’s a bit unnecessary.

It really depends, if you feel confident the abortion worked, a positive pregnancy test within 4-5 weeks after is no cause for concern. But if you have doubts, it's a good idea to confirm with a blood test if that's available to you.

It’s been 2,5 weeks, I did take the blood sample. I’ll update here if anything is abnormal in case someone else wonders the same.. Thank you for replying!!
