Straight answer, don't beat around the bush, can i take b12&hcg shots given at a weightloss clinic to help my husband and i conceive?

Yes and No: Yes, one "can" (no law against it, unless the medical claims are untrue). No, one "should not" (best to stick to proven, conventional medical therapies). For conception issues, the ob-gyn doctors are the one's to get advice and treatment from.

News from the bush: No! it would be better to see a trained fertility md who can provide more expert testing and analysis of you, as a couple, conception capability.

Depends: If your husband is infertile, the low dose for diet will not stimulate a boost in sperm production. He will need doses in the thousands to do that. If you are infertile because of obesity, than losing weight will correct your hormone imbalance of estrogen/progesterone and potentially make you more fertile.
