So, you've decided to quit weed. Congrats! One of the first questions that likely pops up is: "How long will it stay in my system?" Unfortunately, there's no one-size-fits-all answer. Several factors influence detection time, including frequency of use, metabolism, body fat percentage, and the sensitivity of the drug test.
For occasional users, weed might be detectable in urine for up to 3 days. Moderate users could test positive for 5-7 days. Frequent users, however, might face a window of 10-15 days, or even longer. Heavy, chronic users sometimes find it lingers for up to 30 days or more. Blood tests are less common and generally detect THC for a shorter period (around 1-7 days). Hair follicle tests have the longest detection window, potentially up to 90 days.
While there's no magic cure to flush THC out faster, staying hydrated, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy diet can help your body metabolize it more efficiently. Remember, patience is key. Good luck on your journey to a weed-free life!
