Is It Safe To Use Hcg After Having Stent Implanted?
I am a 60 yo female wt: 250 lbs. I had a heart attack 6/19 followed by stent to a 90% blocked coronary artery. I used HCG last year and lost 43 lbs. in 75 days. I regained 20. Would like to integrate HCG use again with new rehab of exercise and 1000 calorie diet to reduce BMI. Is it going to be safe?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
After stent implantation, taking HCG or any weight reduction medicine are not safe as it increases metabolism and chances of increasing heart beat are more.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. S. Sulthana
