How to Mix HCG for Weight Loss

HCG stands for human Choriogonadotropin, which is the hormone produced by pregnant women during the early stages of pregnancy. This is also the hormone that indicates whether a woman is pregnant when tested in the urine or blood. Some believe that injections of HCG effectively result in weight loss, especially for people who are obese. However, this claim has not been proved by medical or scientific studies. Before you decide to try this weight loss approach, make sure you understand that it does not guarantee success. The administration of HCG must be supervised by a medical professional to prevent any complications or side effects.
