Why Is HCG Prescribed For A Pregnant Woman?
Hi, My wife is Pregnant and the doctor has prescribed her HCG injection, It is my understanding that the Injection is for women who want to become pregnant and not for those who are already pregnant. It is a normal pregnancy. She had a miscarriage once but it was due to her low weight.

Hello sir and welcome.
hCG injections are indeed prescribed for women who are planning to conceive and are not fertile enough due to various causes, but it is also prescribed in pregnant women to support pregnancy and prevent miscarriages caused due to various factors. As your wife has a history of miscarriage, it is strongly advised for her.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
