Hello dear Lybrate user, hcg is absolutely safe and essential for growth of your baby. Please do t go as per internet because its very less likely you will get a correct response rather talk to your doctor. Hcg is a hormone secreted by the placenta for growth of the baby. Now tell me how can it be contrai dicated if nature is providing the same for safekeeping of your baby. Just remember no doctor will recommend anything which is not good for the baby.
