Faint positive 3 weeks after termination?

I took the medical termination pill almost 3 weeks ago (first pill Wednesday 26th May, second pill Thursday 27th May). Have had no sex since.

It was all done by post. I didn't see anyone. They also sent a pregnancy test and told me to test 3 weeks after the termination. I feel ill today - nauseous, head-achey. No temp - sitting happy at 37.1

Took the pregnancy test - am I seeing things or is it the most mild positive? Pics attached

Do I need to do anything? Is it ok to just keep an eye on my temp and how I feel over the next few days, to check I don't seem to have an infection, and then test again in a week?

That isn’t all that faint. I think pregnancy hormones can linger in your system for a while though, hopefully someone will know how long for. The tests are very sensitive so will pick up small amounts.

@selflove Im the same on my second test 4 weeks post treatment (May 19) I called bpas after 1st faint positive last week and was advised to retest again in 1 week and exactly the same this week. Called again, and have to test again next Monday and if still positive to call back and will get me in for a scan. I've no symptoms! The nurse did say it could take a few more weeks for a negative!
I'd give your provider a call!
