Hi,
Thanks for the query.
I understand your concern.
HCG helps in production of progesterone hormone, which helps in maintenance of pregnancy and in preventing miscarriage.
Usually taking the HCG twice a week may not lead to much problem as usually with the progression of pregnancy the levels of HCG increase naturally also.
Once spotting controls, you can stop taking the drug with your doctor's advice.
Take care.
