A member asked:

Can taking hcg diet drops affect fertility at all?

Dr. Seth Derman answered

Specializes in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility

Maybe: It is not a good idea to be taking the HCG diet while trying. Hcg may affect your cycles. However, the weight loss from the diet may actually enhance your fertility if you are overweight.
