Is It Safe To Take HCG Diet While Having Prolactinoma?
I am a 37 yr old female and I have a prolactinoma. I but lost my insurance over a year ago and have not been taking any medication for the tumor and I don t currently know what my levels are. My problem is, I have not been able to lose weight. I eat a healthy diet and do light exercise, but have gained weight. I recently started the HCG diet and have lost 6 lbs. Which is great since I m 5 4 and at my peak weighed 250lbs. Will the prolactinoma interfer with the HCG diet?
