Hello,

The pregnancy home test continues to be positive longer after abortion because BHcg levels need some time to get cleared from the blood. It may need up 3 week for test to be negative.

You can do an ultrasound to confirm that there is no fetal heart sound.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
