If I am taking HCG injections for weight loss, could it bring back a false positive pregnancy test? Thanks?
findeight asked:
What if I was only taking drops that I would put in food or water and not an actual injection? This is for a friend of mine and I had the details wrong. Thanks!

Yes – anything that contains HCG could trigger a false positive. It is the exact hormone that your body creates during a pregnancy.
If there is any question, you may need a blood test where they can evaluate the levels and maybe a few blood tests over so many days to see if the level is consistent (as with the injections) or if it is increasing as with pregnancy and possibly ultrasound.
Yes. And if you are even having sex without protection you shouldn’t be using HCG.
