Hi,
It is normal to find pregnancy hormone in blood two weeks after abortion.

After abortion the pregnancy hormone takes about three weeks to be washed off from the body. Rarely it may take up to 6 weeks. So don't get worried.

If you have any further queries do write to me through Healthcare Magic. I will be happy to answer.
