Pregnancy test and Abortion. Please help!?!


Question:

Pregnancy test and Abortion. Please help!?

A friend of mine's younger sister Emily just had an abortion. She did the pill method where she went home and did it in the comfort of her own home. Well she passed two large golf ball masses on the past Sunday. After that all her morning sickness and pain went away. Now for the past three days she has had pretty intense pain in the region above the vagina (You know when you cramp). My friend asked Emily if it was cramps but she said she doesnt know what they are because she never had a ruff period before. They have always been light and pain free. She is bleeding lightly. However she just took another prego test and it said she is still pregnant. Well the clinic that she went to asked to see her two weeks after last Sunday to see if she passed everything. Could it be possible that she still has hormones that say she is pregnant in her body? Plus she started the Pill on Monday. What do you think? She says she hasnt had sex since before the abortion. Please no NEGATIVENESS


Answers:

You shouldn't worry about the pregnancy test coming out positive, it takes awhile for the hormones to leave your body completely. You should test positive for a few weeks afterwords even though you aren't pregnant anymore. Of course there is a chance that the abortion wasn't successful, but that is highly unlikely particularly because of the amount of tissue she passed.

Taking ib profen would help with the cramps

Cramping for several days after the abortion is normal. If the cramps are very bad though it would probably be a good idea to call the clinic and see what they say, just to be on the safe side. If it was something serious like a infection she should have other symptoms as well, like a fever. I think everything is probably fine but you could always call the clinic just to be on the safe side.
