Brief Answer:
Pregnancy symptoms take time to go away

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns.

Pregnancy symptoms like nausea and vomiting are caused by hormones line hcg in blood.

It takes time about a month for blood levels of hormones to reduce and these symptoms like nausea to go away completely.

You will see the decline in symptoms soon by next week.

Let me know if you need anymore help.

but should I still be concerned that the chronic nausea started 2 weeks after the abortion? or is it normal for it to hit a while after?

Brief Answer:
It is normal

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

It is normal to start but late as the serum levels falls slowly.

This should reduce soon.
