Question: after the procedure how long to wait to do home test for pregnancy? after 10 days of abortion and no sex, i did home pregnancy test and it came out "pregnant" but all the other signs, like the morning sickness, hard to swallow, being ofended by small smels etc... are gone and i feel health. so how long i have to wait to do the home test or is something wrong with me?

Answer: It is a difficult call because after any pregnancy - whether live birth, stillbirth, miscarriage or abortion, one still sees positive home pregnancy tests for up to eight weeks following the birth or loss. \n\nThe only way to determine if you are in fact pregnant right now would be to ask for a blood test. If your levels are up, you will be asked to return the following week to see if those initial levels have doubled. If that happens, you are pregnant. If the levels stay the same or drop, you may have been recently pregnant again or just have lingering hCG hormone in your bloodstream from your last pregnancy\nhttp://www.anairhoads.org/bc/pregabort.shtml
