A member asked:
Can hcg drops hurt you? is there such a thing as "pure" hcg drops? can a doctor prescribe them?

Yes: It will hurt your pocketbook. Hcg shots are a worthless way to lose weight. It is given by quacks to make you nauseated - which is why pregnant women have nausea in the first trimester - their own hcg. If HCG is given orally as drops it will be digested in the stomach like any protein and be ineffective in causing nausea and weight loss.

Agree with Dr.G.: There is no medical reason for HCG injections, or HCG diets etc.
