One of the most commonly asked questions we answer at Your HCG is whether or not men can safely do the HCG Diet. In response to this, the answer is unequivocally YES! Unbeknownst to most, men produce HCG in their body as well although at a much lower level than women. It should be noted that HCG is a natural water-based hormone produced in copious amounts in pregnant women.

HCG Diet Side Effects for Men

Another point in question is whether there are any side effects associated with men taking HCG. If the HCG diet plan is used properly, there is little in the way of side effects. Some of the rare side effects reported in men include body fatigue, headaches and increased irritability. If any side effects become troublesome, it is highly recommended that they consult their doctor and immediately quit taking HCG.

Side effects can vary between men and women. In reality, women potentially are confronted with more side effects than men.  If a female takes HCG for fertility reasons, she is faced with the risk of nausea and breast tissue tenderness. Your HCG states that when HCG is used in the context of a weight loss protocol, a very small dosage (125 IU) is required whereas 10,000 IU is used for fertility reasons. Based on these facts, the risk for side effects is extremely rare.
