Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Plan B does not alter the levels of HCG in the body. Hcg hormone is only secreted by placenta. It is present only in negligible amounts during the non pregnant state.

Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
