Hi, Welcome to health care magic platform. I understand your query & concern, HCG is Human chorionic gonadotrophin hormone injection which facilitates conception & also supports fetal growth when the hormone is deficient... till placenta is well formed & takes over the hormonal production( up to 12 weeks of pregnancy ) Please follow the treatment advised .. it is to support the weak fetus out of the twins. HCG is not known to have side effects or teratogenic effect on fetus. Thanks
