Description
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone that plays a critical role in both pregnancy and male reproductive health. During pregnancy, it is produced by the placenta to maintain the corpus luteum, stimulate progesterone production, and support fetal development. In men, hCG acts similarly to luteinizing hormone by stimulating the testes to produce testosterone, making it valuable for treating male hypogonadism and preserving fertility. By activating these pathways, hCG supports hormone balance in both reproductive and broader metabolic contexts.

Quality Verification
Each batch should be reviewed against its Certificate of Analysis, including identity confirmation, purity method, mass/sequence or component confirmation, appearance, and lot-specific handling notes. Blend products should be checked against component-ratio documentation where available.
Laboratory Preparation
