Hello
Thanks for your query.
The prega news strip or urine pregnancy kit is NOT a reliable method of checking for completion of abortion.
If your ultrasound showed a complete abortion, and you had sex on 10th August, pregnancy relating from that act will not show up as positive by 19th August.
For checking whether you conceived from that act, you need ultrasound 4 - 5 weeks after 10th August.
Also, please avoid having sex for 4 - 6 weeks after abortion.
Take care.
