hello,
welcome to hcm
thanks for the query
pregnancy and puerperium are predisposing for pulmonary embolism
also oc pills can predispose to this condition
if you have conditions like homocystenemia, or some thromboembolic diseaseor dvt(depending on the underlying condition then you have to consult a physician and be on regular follow up
hcg drops are not helpful . you have to find out the exact cause by consulting physician then you can go for treatment
take care
