How Long Can One Sustain HCG Diet In Body?
I started the HCG diet but I only did it for a whole week because I was not feeling good. A week after I finished the diet, I did a pregnacy test and it came out positive. I am worried the positive is just for the HCG that I took during the diet. How long does the HCG stays in your body?
