HCG drops are not approved by the FDA for weight loss, so there is little information about the safety of this supplement for uses other than fertility treatments. That said, following the 500-calorie hCG protocol is very unhealthy for someone with any kind of health condition, because it puts a huge amount of stress on the body. You should discuss other weight loss options with your health care provider.
