Thanks for the answer Dr. Soumen. My friend is a gyanac and I have showed my prescription to her. She says 3 injections are enough; 6 injections can have side effects. Is it true?
Brief Answer:
NO DEFINITE CLEAR CUT LIMITATION OF USING HUMOG.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for follow up query.
HUMOG injection has some tolerable side effects like flatulence, abdominal pain and bloating, loose stools, anorexia, local reactions, steatorrhea etc. It varies patient to patient and there is NO clear cut limitation of using this injection.
However, dose of this injection depends on your current clinical condition which is assessed by your treating doctor. Therefore, I suggest to consult with him or her once regarding this.
Hope, it helps for you. Kindly, close the discussion.
All the best and good luck.
Regards,
Dr Soumen
