HCG shots and HPT

Hi! I have been receiving 4 hcg shots a month each of 2000 units. The last day of my first period was Dec. 14 and I have taken a hpt and it came back positive. My question is, HOW LONG WOULD THE HCG SHOTS STAY IN MY SYSTEM? IT HAS BEEN 7 DAYS SINCE MY LAST SHOT. WOULD THAT GIVE ME A FALSE POSITIVE?

Those shots would def. cause a positive preg. result. Your doctor should explain everything to you. Just give them a call.

It can take up to 30 days for the hcg levels to go back down to normal. So you are prolly getting a false result! Good Luck though and hopefully Im wrong!

do you know how long they stay in your system though? Before this, I never had a positive, and now have had four, but today took test and it was negative. I took a blood test yesterday, but results won't be back til tom.
