Hi,

Thanks for writing in.

Well, there have been lots of contoversies regarding HCG diet/drops. As a doctor i would advice you to stay away from such forms of weight loss. There is no documented association between HCG diets and acne.

However, there is no valid proof and safety about the HCG products.
Infact, FDA of US has officially banned the drug due to sideeffects.
