Brief Answer:
Category x drug

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

FDA has labelled inj hCG in pregnancy as category x drug. That means it can lead to congenital anomalies in baby. This drug is freely used in pregnancy by many in XXXXXXX .

With the FDA warning I don't use this in pregnancy. Little is known about its role in prevention of miscarriages.
