Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Hcg diet has no relation with your platelets count. You may have some viral infection or other infection which may leads to fall in your platelets count. Don't worry. Just be relaxed. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
