What Are the Side Effects of HCG Injections?
|
There are no known side effects from the use of the HCG hormone by itself. Because the HCG diet program requires restricting calories there can be side effects from this. Any diet that restricts calories could lead to malnutrition side effects. However with regular monitoring this can be avoided. Also given the short period of time that is spent on the HCG diet it is rare to have any side effects. |
Side Effects |
There have been reports of headaches the first few on the diet and this symptom typically disappears by the second week on the diet. The headache can be attributed to the change s being made in the diet causing a detoxifying effect, mostly from all the sugars, additives and preservatives we take in on a daily basis.

Monitoring is also recommended to make sure there are no drastic changes in blood pressure, blood sugar, and electrolyte status.
