Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. If gestational age is below 8 weeks, medical termination with tablets is possible. In case of higher gestational age, medical termination may not be complete. Sometimes even after completion of abortion, urine pregnancy test kit may show positive result till 2 weeks after abortion. So, you better go for ultrasound once with your doctor's advice. If there are no retained products in ultrasound, no need to worry. If any retained products of conception are there, minimal products can be dealt with tablets, if products are more you may need to undergo Dilation and evacuation.
Hope I have answered your query and I will be happy to answer any further follow-up queries. Take care.
