HCG (10,000 IU)

Product Overview

HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) is a glycoprotein peptide hormone that closely mimics the biological activity of luteinizing hormone (LH) within the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis.
In scientific research, HCG is investigated for its ability to stimulate steroidogenesis and support gonadal hormone production through its direct action on LH receptors located in the Leydig cells of the testes and theca cells of the ovaries.

By binding to these receptors, HCG initiates a cascade of intracellular signaling events that promote the synthesis of testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone.
This makes it a valuable model compound for studying endocrine feedback regulation, hormonal recovery, and fertility-related mechanisms under controlled experimental conditions.

Research has examined HCG’s influence on spermatogenesis, gonadal responsiveness, and hypothalamic signaling in both male and female physiology.
In male-focused studies, it has been shown to help maintain testicular function and Leydig cell activity during exogenous hormone administration or HPG-axis suppression.
In female reproductive models, HCG is often used to study ovulation induction, corpus luteum maintenance, and progesterone synthesis.

Ongoing research continues to explore HCG’s effects on metabolic regulation, body composition, and post-suppression hormonal recovery, as well as its role in testicular endocrine restoration following therapeutic intervention or metabolic stress.
