Nu Image Medical no longer offers the HCG Weight Loss Program. GOOD NEWS! We have developed something better and easier: WAYT-less!
Hearsay abounds about the hCG diet, and one of the leading rumors is that the low-calorie dietary plan causes hair loss. If a person does experience hair loss, but there is no underlying medical cause, then the hair will regrow. When followed correctly, Dr. Simeons hCG diet protocol contains sufficient nutrients and vitamins so that you will experience no nutritional deficiencies. Very few people ever suffer any hair loss on a diet. If hair strands start to fall out, then they will quickly regrow once the hCG dietary protocol ends.
Reasons for Hair Loss When on the HCG Diet
There are numerous reasons why a person can temporarily start shedding their hair:
The Importance of Weighting Before Undergoing Additional Rounds of HCG
After you achieve success with your hCG diet plan it is only natural to want to embark on a second round to lose even more weight but it imperative that you give your body a rest. You should wait six to eight weeks before starting another round of hCG. Beginning a series too soon puts your body under stress. A resting period will help ensure that your body does not undergo hormone sensitivity. When you complete Phase 2 of the hCG diet you cease taking the hCG supplement. At this point, you enter Phase 3 (also known as the Maintenance Phase) of the protocol. During Phase 3, you start to increase your caloric intake while still maintaining your weight. Phase 3 lasts three weeks. After Phase 3 is complete, you will want to wait an additional three weeks before starting another hCG diet protocol round. Waiting between cycles, helps your body refresh and rejuvenate, so you do not suffer any adverse side effects such as hair loss. Your Nu Image medical provider will let you know the recommended start time for your next hCG dietary round.
The Health Benefits of the hCG Diet
The ultimate goal of the hCG diet is not only to lose a substantial amount of weight but to keep off the unwanted pounds by resetting your metabolism. The health benefits of the hCG diet far outweigh losing a few strands of hair. To date, there have been no documented cases of patients experiencing permanent hair loss due to the hCG diet protocol. Remember, that the hCG diet has been a success for over sixty years. If you have any concerns or questions about the hCG diet or possible hair loss, please contact a medical professional at Nu Image Medical for a consultation or to receive additional information.
