Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is a hormone that supports the normal development of an egg in a woman's ovary, and stimulates the release of the egg during ovulation.

HCG is used to cause ovulation and to treat infertility in women, and to increase sperm count in men. HCG is also used in young boys when their testicles have not dropped down into the scrotum normally. This can be caused by a pituitary gland disorder.

What is function of hcg 5000iu

(1) has the function of FSH and LH, longevity maintenance of the luteal phase, so that the corpus luteum enlargement into pregnancy luteal;

(2) to promote androgen aroma into estrogen, while stimulating progesterone formation;

(3) inhibition of plant lectin on the stimulation of lymphocytes, human chorionic gonadotropin can be adsorbed on the surface of trophoblastic cells in order to prevent embryonic trophoblast cells from being attacked by the mother's lymphocytes;

(4) LH function, in the fetal pituitary LH secretion before stimulation of fetal testis secretion testo-sterone to promote male sexual differentiation; can also promote gonadal development of male can stimulate testicular stromal cells in the vitality and increase the secretion of androgen (testo-sterone) . The treatment of male patients with pituitary defects is of great significance, not only can promote gonadal development and androgen secretion, but also promote the development of secondary sexual characteristics.

(5) with the thyroid TSH receptors to stimulate thyroid activity.

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone that is normally produced first by the cells that make up the placenta, then later by the placenta during pregnancy. Its primary function is to support the pregnancy by encouraging the production of progesterone. This supports and promotes the further development of the placenta early in pregnancy. This hormone causes a rapid progesterone increase early in pregnancy, but tapers off slowly as the placenta grows enough to produce enough progesterone to support the pregnancy on its own. The glycoprotein also serves in aiding in the development of gonads in the fetus and the production of androgens by the testes of a male fetus.
