When Is The Best Time To Test For Pregnancy After Taking The Contraceptive Pill?

I just finished the hcg diet with sublingual hcg/b12 combo. The dose I believe is 500iu per day (250iu sublingual lay bid). My period is over a week late and a home pregnancy is still positive. I took last dose nearly 48 hours ago. Is it possible it is still in my system? When should I test to be sure either way?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
You need to test the urine at least one week after the last dose of HCG to be sure that you are not pregnant. You can also get serum HCG evaluated at 48 hours interval.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
