Could Bruise Be The Side Effect Of Taking HCG Drops?

I have been on a diet using HCG drops. I have been experiencing a bit of unexplained bruising and other areas that are the same pain as a bruise, but no bruise or injury is present. Could this be a side effect of the HCG? Is this a safe thing to take?

Hello,

I will suggest you to discontinue the hormonal method of weight loss. HCG drops along with a diet lead to bruising. Lack of vitamin C in diet and other important micro nutrients can lead to bruisability. HCG has also many side effects, one of which a rare one is bruisability. It's best to get into a weight loss program using natural methods and not skipping these essential nutrients, under the guidance of a professional nutritionist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Muhammad Faisal Bacha, Internal Medicine Specialist
