Heart palpitations, cold hands and feet are due to the influence of weight loss pills or pregnancy?

Ask
Hello doctor. Recently, I have used weight loss pills, I have some symptoms such as strong heart, cold hands and feet... Before, when I used weight loss pills, I ate a lot and slept a lot. Is my condition due to my pregnancy or the effect of the drug? Thank you doctor.

Answer
In your case, what you need to do right away is to see an Obstetrician to see if you are pregnant because if you are pregnant, using the wrong medicine will greatly affect your pregnancy. I don't know how much my child's weight status is, what kind of weight loss pills are used, if they are prescribed by a doctor or self-administered. Currently, there are a lot of advertisements for weight loss pills that are not verified, of unknown origin, so it should be used with extreme caution.
