When women make the decision to get an abortion it is often a stressful one. The abnormal levels of stress could have on effect on the menstrual cycle, causing changes in the monthly period after the abortion. In some cases, it will take several months for women to have their normal menstrual cycle after abortion, while others see a return fairly quickly. In essence, the menstrual cycle will be reset effectively by an abortion, which means that your next period should return in about four weeks

Who prescribed the abortificient for you, how many months was the pregnancy? What drug(s) did you use? (you don't need to answer this here).

The answers to the above are important because even lay men suggest all manner of things to abort a pregnancy. Also note that the type of/use of drugs depends on how many months the pregnancy is.

For the pregnancy test to still be positive and pregnancy symptoms still present means the pregnancy is still there, although it may not be viable, and this could be a time bomb!!!

It could be a pregnancy outside the womb, an abnormal pregnancy called molar pregnancy (with potential to turn to cancer), or it could lead to a severe infection later whose end is death.

But do not be afraid, you still have time to correct it.

I guess you did not consult a doctor before embarking on such journey. Therefore, I suggest you quickly go and see a doctor for proper check to ascertain the type and location of the pregnancy.
Cheers!

It is posible you are still pregnant.
Go for ultrasound scan.

Shally365, after a proper abortion, the pregnancy hormones would no longer be detectable in the blood by Day 10-15.
What drugs did you take for the abortion?
