Is Pregnancy Continuation Possible Even After Medical Abortion?

I had a medical abortion about 5 weeks ago the day the abortion was done a large number of blood cloth came out for less than 5 hours and I was just spotting after that day. I took 2 pregnancy test at 5 weeks after and still came positive, I am still bleeding now lightly though with no blood clothes and I have a very smelly discharge. And I feel like there's still something in my belly and I see my belly growing bigger and bigger. Does this mean I'm still pregnant. Please help I'm going crazy

Hi, thanks for writing..
This means the pregnancy is still growing in utero. Get a scan done at the earliest To see for the retained products of conception.. if it is there, it should be evacuated immediately as this can cause anomalies in the baby.. The smelly discharge can be due infection. Get a swab and take antibiotics for treating the infection.. Hope I have answered your query.. Good day..
