Question
i had an abortion 2 weeks ago, when i tested my urine hCG today, i saw there was a faint line appearing. i had unprotected sex a few days ago but my husband ejaculated out of the vagina.. could i be pregnant?
Dear Annie - the faint positive urine test is most likely from your abortion 2 weeks ago. The test can remain positive for weeks to months, so you probably don't have anything to worry about. Check it again in one week. If it is still faint or negative, there is no concern.
I hope this is helpful,
Doctor Joan
