Post-Abortion Bleeding & Positive Pregnancy Test: What to Do Next


Question
I had a surgical termination just over three weeks ago and i am still bleeding, I've spoken to a nurse and she told me to take another pregnancy test which i have done and it has come up positive I would like to know what happens next would i have to go through the surgical termination again?

Answer
Hi Dannie

I would schedule an appointment to get an ultrasound to be sure. Not sure how far you'd be along but if you had a surgical abortion it should be far enough. A pregnancy test measures hormones so im not sure it's even valid to determine if you are pregnant after an abortion. If you want a free ultrasound go to a crisis pregnancy center. You can still get an abortion but you will have to listen to them but it's free!  
Good luck
