Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The length of time will vary depending on how often you consume the good green herb. When it comes to how long weed stays in your system, THC is stored in the body’s fat, and therefore accumulates in the body gradually over time. It essentially doesn’t matter how you consume cannabis, the more you smoke, vape, or eat the herb, the longer it will be detectable in your urine. Here’s what you should know before you find yourself peeing in one of those little cups. In general, here’s how long cannabis can be found in your system:

For single use: up to 8 days. For frequent use: up to 15 days. For regular use: up to 30 days. For heavy use: up to 45-77 days. As a general guide, if you’re a regular consumer of marijuana, the chances are THC will remain in your urine for even up to a month after stopping. That’s why it’s good to stay frosty, on your toes, since this is also the most likely and frequent way you’ll be tested for weed in your system.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
