Does Taking HCG Shots Reduce The Platelet Count?

I have been taking HCG shots in My belly fat for 10 days now. But considering quitting because of online reads of low platelet counts. I have not lost a lot of weight only 3 pounds in 10 days. But noticed reduction in belly fat.Can the HCG hormone really cause platelet reduction?
