I'm really curious about the benefits of taking an hCG injection during the 5th week of pregnancy. Are there any potential downsides to it? I'm just looking to understand what impact it might have, both good and bad.
HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) injection in the 5th week of pregnancy may help support embryonic development, maintain pregnancy, and prevent miscarriage, particularly in cases of threatened abortion or history of recurrent miscarriages; however, potential disadvantages or risks include multiple pregnancy, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), and allergic reactions, although these risks are relatively low when administered properly under medical supervision.
