About Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG).

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a gonadotropic biologic hormone and fertility agent available in urine-derived and recombinant formulations.

It functions primarily as a luteinizing hormone analog, binding to the LH/hCG receptor to stimulate gonadal steroidogenesis, driving ovarian progesterone secretion and follicular maturation in females as well as testicular androgen production by Leydig cells in males.

Clinically, it is indicated for the induction of final oocyte maturation and ovulation in anovulatory female infertility, as well as for treating prepubertal cryptorchidism and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism in males.
