HCG hormone for weight loss

[Unicentro]

Anyone knows where I can get hcg hormone to take back home and inject my self?

Went some pharmacies on soi buakaw and it doesn't seem to be very common here.

This is a new one but not a huge surprise on this board. HCG is a hormone produced by pregnant women (it is what a home pregnancy test detects) with no, none, zero, zilch proven evidence it works for this purpose and probably a very dumb idea for men to experiment with. I would imagine it would be hard to find in Pattaya or Thailand outside a hospital with a endocrinology specialty

 

Here's the medical opinion:

 

There is no scientific evidence that HCG is effective in the treatment of obesity. The meta-analysis found insufficient evidence supporting the claims that HCG is effective in altering fat-distribution, hunger reduction or in inducing a feeling of well-being. The authors stated “…the use of HCG should be regarded as an inappropriate therapy for weight reduction…” In the authors opinion, “Pharmacists and physicians should be alert on the use of HCG for Simeons therapy. The results of this meta-analysis support a firm standpoint against this improper indication. Restraints on physicians practicing this therapy can be based on our findings.”

HCG does not cause any sort of weight loss at all....zero.

 

bodybuilders and athletes use HCG after finishing a steroid cycle in order to restart their HPTA (testicles) into producing natural testosterone again.

 

my girlfriend back in the US wanted to try this diet, so i did some research on it to find out what it really is

 

the "HCG diet" that has become popular back in the west is basically a starvation diet, the person drops down to 500 calories per day for 4 weeks while avoiding almost all sugars, carbs, fats, etc, while injecting themselves with HCG daily... the intended purpose of the HCG is to help stop hunger and prevent muscle from being wasted away during this intense starvation. then after the 4 weeks, there is a continued strict diet of what food to eat and not eat that they need to follow to avoid putting the weight back on.

 

in my opinion, the use of HCG in this "diet" plan is really just for placebo affect, as the people taking it believe all the marketing and hype and they think the HCG is actually causing the weightloss, rather than the truth which is just starvation.... they would lose the same amount of weight following the diet without the HCG at all.

 

my gf did manage to lose 22lbs using the diet.... but she was incredibly miserable the entire time because of always being hungry and not being able to eat anything good.

I bought some about a month ago at pharmacy on Second Road across from Mike's Mall.

450 baht for 5000 iu..but...only 1 ml of bacterialstatic water, had to use sterile water and freeze

to preserve. Great Pharmacy on Pattaya Neu across from Lotus for all needles and sterile water,

gauze pads. etc

Geez, i think i would rather stop boozing for a month and start an exercise regime, than stick hormones in myself......won't you get uncontrollable urges to eat strange foods, defeating the purpose of the treatment. and your nipples will get bigger, supa sized man- boobs.......

Speaking as someone who could easily lose a few pounds, this surely is one of those easy fixes for the idle.

U can but it pharmacy next to tims bar complex. It's cheap, use for only 10- 14 days, it will stimulate your nuts to produce testosterone.

Are you getting it confused with HGH ??

I have done the HCG diet. Both with the homeopathic drops, as well as the injection of the real HCG. You basically starve yourself on it. You max out with two meals and 500 calories. Sure, you lose a lot of weight in a short time, but the second you come off it, you gain it all right back, unless you stick to eating the same diet for the same duration you did the diet on. It is usually a 3 week on and 3 week off, but you need to eat the same for those full 6 weeks.

 

I had headaches for the first 4 days that I have never experienced before in my life. KILLER headaches.
