The pregnancy test strip still shows a pregnant state during the postpartum recovery period (small sitting month).

During the post-abortion recovery period (commonly referred to as "small month"), a pregnancy test still showing a positive result may be due to inaccurate test results, hormone levels not yet returning to normal, or residual pregnancy tissue. Detailed explanations are as follows:

1. Inaccurate pregnancy test

The term "small month" generally refers to the recovery phase after an induced abortion. If the pregnancy test still shows positive during this time, it could be because the test kit has expired or was used incorrectly, leading to inaccurate results.

2. Hormone levels have not yet returned to normal

During the post-abortion period, hormone levels that rose during pregnancy may not immediately return to baseline. This can cause a continued positive test result. However, this condition usually resolves on its own over time. It is important to maintain healthy lifestyle habits and eat a light, balanced diet.

3. Residual pregnancy tissue

If remnants of pregnancy tissue remain in the uterine cavity after an abortion procedure, the body may continue to produce high levels of pregnancy hormones, creating the false impression of ongoing pregnancy. This condition requires medical treatment at a qualified healthcare facility, typically through a procedure called dilation and curettage (D&C).

It is recommended to seek timely medical attention if any discomfort or abnormal symptoms occur.
