Testing to ensure miscarriage is complete

[OttilieKnackered]

Hi all,

Three weeks ago I had surgical management of an MMC. They told me to test for pregnancy three weeks later and the attached photo is the result. Does that look like a faint positive to everyone else?

It is very faint and I know it can take a while for levels to go right down, so is it worth contacting the EPAU?

Should I retest in a week or use a different type?

I'd retest in a week. There is still a faint line there. Took me forever to get a true negative -9 weeks!

@TheDaydreamBelievers thank you so much for your response. I think that’s what I’ll do. It’s frustrating. I just want my period and to get back into my cycle. I certainly don’t feel pregnant any more. No bleeding for a good week, boobs back to normal etc.

Why does no one tell you that MC is not just awful, it’s awful and LONG.
