How long does it take for HCG to turn negative after abortion? What should I do if it continues to be positive?

Generally, it takes 15 to 30 days after an abortion for HCG in the body to be fully detected through urine testing.

After the medical abortion, the gestational sac is expelled from the body through drugs, so the HCG level in the body is still at a high level. This level will not drop immediately after the operation. It takes a process. It is recommended that you can check the urine pregnancy test again in two weeks. The urine test should be negative at that time.

It will take half a month to 20 days for the hormone levels in the body to return to normal levels after the abortion. It is normal to have such symptoms now. If the bleeding is not too much and there is no severe abdominal pain, it generally has little impact. Go to the hospital for a follow-up check-up half a month after the abortion.

If there is residue after abortion, it can cause prolonged bleeding time. If you want to deal with the problem of residue, you should give treatment according to the size of the residue.

If the size is small, you can take medicine such as motherwort paste for treatment. If the size is large, you need to undergo uterine cleaning treatment, pay attention to rest, pay attention to hygiene, and prohibit sexual intercourse for one month.

Generally, the HCG level will be positive about 10 days after the abortion, and will gradually disappear and turn negative after half a month. It takes a process for the HCG level to decrease after the abortion, generally about 7 days. If the positive level lasts for a long time, whether there is an incomplete abortion, such as residual placental tissue in the uterus, or hydatidiform mole, choriocarcinoma, etc., you must go to the hospital immediately for an ultrasound examination. The concentration of blood HCG can also help to identify. Urine HCG usually turns negative 1-2 weeks after the abortion. It takes about 1 month for blood HCG to reach the state of non-pregnancy. If urine HCG continues to be positive, incomplete abortion or hydatidiform mole should be considered, and blood HCG and B-ultrasound should be further checked.
