Hello.
A pregnancy test done after an abortion can still be positive because the pregnancy hormones(HCG) are not completely eliminated from the body.
It is nothing to worry. Ask her to wait for 4 weeks and repeat the test.
Until then, if she has any unusual bleeding or discharge, pain or fever she can go for an ultrasound to see if there are retained products of conception.
Also please use a birth control measure henceforth.
Hope this is helpful. Write in if you have any doubts.
