Avatar f tn My non professional opinion HCG diet probably not a good idea and could be dangerous.. With hepatitis C you need to be under the care of a hepatoligist or an gastroenterologist experienced in HCV, hepatology and Cirrhosis. Patients with decompensated cirrhosis (moderate or severe hepatic impairment; CTP class B or C) should be referred to a medical practitioner with expertise in that condition (ideally in a liver transplant center).
Avatar f tn What are Doctors thinking about the HCG injections for weight loss? Is is safe and does it work? I am considering a diet that says its a miracle hormone. I'd like to hear from some Medical Doctors please..
Avatar n tn It is a homeopathic diet by Dr Simeon called the hcg diet which is the pregnancy hormone extracted from pregnant women s urine injected into the fatty areas of your body ,like insulin, produces a loss of fat in that area of your body. You get it at your pharmacy.
Avatar f tn I have read alot about the Hcg diet and I want to give it a try. I don't have a doctor in my area so I want to try it onmy on with the book. Can someone please tell me where I can buy the Hcg drops?? There's tons of places on the internet but I want some advice from you people who have actually tried it and know thatis works. There's so many scammers out there. I've seen it on ebay too but there's so many I 'm not sure if it's real.
Avatar f tn The worst thing about a drastic plan such as the hcg diet, is that you will most likely gain back all of the lost weight as soon as you go off the diet; possibly even gaining more yet. Weight loss through a good diet and exercise program is the healthiest way to go and making life style changes that you can live with from now will help guarantee continued success. Best of luck to you.
Avatar f tn You have to allow yourself some treats or any diet will fail. But just in moderation or then your diet will definitely fail. Say, eating a little more or something decadent that you've been craving once every ten days. That would be okay.
Avatar m tn I am on the hcg diet, I ate by protocol all day but when I got hom I was locked out and when I finally got in to the house I was really hungry and unprepared. My kids ate chicken nuggets, thanks grandma! But I ate 1 turkey weenie on a bun with mustarf and ketchup. The turkey weenies are 45 cals each and 1 gram of fat. Do you think I will be okay or now have a delayed in my weight loss?
Avatar f tn I am making a statement rather than a question. In 2008 I started doing the HCG diet. I lost weight but in June of 2008 I was diagnosed with hormone positve invasive ductal carcinoma breast cancer. I had my annual mammogram in June of 07 and in June of 08 I felt a lump. I can't help but thinking it caused the hormone pos. breast cancer to grow quite fast. It was probably already there. They say cancer can be in our bodies up to 7 years. Since they use HCG for infertility it makes sense.
Avatar m tn you know, a normal human body loose min 2000cal a day and you have to take max 500 cal when you are on diet.. I mean even if you dont use HCG diet, you already lose 1500 cal a day min and it is 45.000 cal a mounth.. Please dont believe this kind of ******** diet program and dont waste money and dont loose your health!!!! It is just scam to take your money.. Just be smart!!
1363590 tn?1277807077 But I thought it was called the HCG diet, IDK. For me it was always hard to gain weight during pregnancy and I was always lossing it unless I ate all day long. , lol. I would ask the clinic about side effect and what not. Good luck!!
Avatar f tn HCG is a hormone produced by pregnant women that many weight loss doctors are providing to their patients, mostly in shot form, for weight loss. The HCG program includes a diet that consists of only 500 calories/day, so it's not really the HCG that causes the weight loss, it's the drastic cut in calories, which is very bad for you. What have you tried so far, to lose weight? Maybe if you stick around, we can help you.
Avatar f tn I'm going to guess that you are right. There's a very strict diet that goes along with hcg diet, which I don't believe is good under any circumstances, but with your lupus the diet could have serious effects. My daughter has lupus - I'd rather see her a bit over weight.
Avatar n tn That depends why you're taking HCG. If it's for the weight loss and you're following the program: If you're young it may be because of the diet, and it may need to be artificially induced later. That, or you might be entering menopause.
Avatar f tn About a year and a half ago I took a hormone called hcg sublingually for weight loss purposes. After wards I began to suffer terrible symptoms such as bone pain, pain everywhere, tingling, numbness, and loss if sensation through out my body. The diet also suggests that you eat less than 800 calories a day. I should also add that I was a vegetarian for 3 years before then, but began eating fish around the time of the diet.
Avatar f tn Hi! As you may already know, HCG is the "pregnancy hormone". It hasn't been thoroughly studied in breastfeeding moms, and therefore can't be considered "safe". Also, generally it is not considered to be a good idea to lose weight too quickly while breastfeeding. Your best bet is to discuss the medication with your doctor. Good luck!
425962 tn?1285086458 So I know tons of people in my area that are losing tons of weight(I'm talkin TONS) on this "HcG Diet"... What are your thoughts on this? Do you think its dangerous? If you do know anything about it, or about someone who has done it, please share. Thx!
Avatar f tn Do you think its safe to go on the weightloss program with the HCG shots now that I am all better? One of the questions the program ask is if you currently have PCOS, I answered No because I dont have the issues I used to have with it. I know if I answer yes, they will not let me in the program and I am so desperate to lose this weight. So many of my friends have had great results and I just want the same for me.
Avatar f tn I have had problems for years too. I am on the HCG diet with my hormone doctor. It's been just the right thing for me. 10 pounds in 20 days! Sounds unbelievable but it's working. Maybe that's what you need to get your weight loss started. I am very happy!
202436 tn?1326474333 Has anyone tried this program/diet as a non-medicinal approach to add/adhd/behavioral problems? If so, what resources have you used. My daughter was diagnosed with dysthymic disorder (depression) with underlying adhd behaviors. I am NOT in favor of medicating a 6 yo and have heard great things about the feingold diet and other elimination diets to pinpoint foods/additives/artificial colorings/flavorings that can trigger allergies and cause unfavorable behaviors.
1560848 tn?1329487433 I'm new to the stie and see a lot about this HCG. Also see it can be bought from many places and appears to be injections!!!! Is that right? What is it and how many are using this? Is this safe? Sounds scary, or illegal!!!!
Avatar n tn Taking HCG for diet reasons is a cheat and easy way out. The only true way to lose weight is to diet right and healthy and to work out.
Avatar n tn is it possible that you are further in to your pregnancy than 8 weeks? I ask this because HCG levels during the first trimester will peak sometime around 9 to 12 weeks of pregnancy, at somewhere around 25,700 to 288,000 mIU/ml. By the final weeks of the first trimester week 13 and 14, hCG levels are finally on the decline, and will be at around 13,300 - 254,000 mIU/ml. From there, hCG levels tend to continue the downward change into the second trimester.
Avatar f tn //www.60in3.com/2008/08/25/the-hcg-diet-yet-another-fad-diet/ Aetna (*******), one of many insurance carriers, has a Clinical Policy Bulletin regarding Weight Reduction Medications and Programs posted that excludes Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) or vitamin injections for weight loss because it is considered experimental and investigational for weight loss. There is no magic pill or diet or plan to lose weight quickly and safely. To be fit and healthy you have to eat healthy and exercise.
