General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello dear
I understand your concern
Faint positive line on pregnancy after the medical abortion suggests incomplete abortion/retain product of pregnancy.
Pregnancy test will negative result after 3 week.
I would suggest to undergo USG scan after 14 days to confirm the complete process of abortion.
If incomplete abortion will detect then it should removed y extra dose of misoprostol or by D & C.
Hope this may help you
