A member asked:

Is sleepiness usual when you get hcg shot?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not the usual: Most times no but it is a possible side effect. Immunizations and injections can cause local inflammatory response and these body chemicals can induce sleepiness.

Dr Ali and another doctor agreed
