The newest weight loss method out there is using daily injections of 125 IU of HCG (a very small amount of a hormone that women naturally produce while pregnant) and I just wondered if that could be any cause for a questionable drug test or endanger your job. It does not cause any type of euphoria, make you high, alter your perception/senses where you cannot drive or anything - so I wondered. Thanks for anyone who has any knowledge (rather than guesses) on this. God bless you and have a great day.

not a chance.
drug tests look for controlled substances and/or scheduled drugs when applicable. they do not arbitrarily look for random levels of prescription drugs, the cost would be astronomical.
HCG for weight loss is nothing new or revolutionary. bodybuilders have been using it for decades to jump start endogenous testosterone production after steroid cycles. HCG was also used specifically for weight loss back in the 70's, with disastrous results once the mainstream public got wind. messing with your endocrine system is no joke, it is not for the layman.

No, it will not show up as a ngative result on any drug test, ainly because it is not a drug but a hormone. I took the shots myself and had two drug tests done in the interim and never got a positive reading on either one. The hormones will give you a sense of well-being, but nothing more than that.
Good luck with the diet!

Yes, there are other things that can make hCG show up on a urine test. My sister would routinely miss her period then take pregnancy test after pregnancy test that showed up positive. Then she would get her period. This happened over 6 months finally her period never came again so we went to the doctor to get ultrasound and there was no baby, it was a softball sized cancer mass. She was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer and 23!! She had to have a complete hysterectomy and chemo. Young women aren't educated on Germ Cell Ovarian Cancer that can affect women usually between the ages of 2-25. Germ Cell Ovarian Cancer is not the cancer that women get when they are older. One starts in the ovary and one starts on the outside of the ovary. Hopefully, this is not your case but we need to educate ourselves!!
