HCG

Human chorionic gonadotropin is a chemical created by a tissue found in early embryos to support the production of progesterone, a hormone stimulated during pregnancy to help prepare the lining of the uterus. It shares receptors with the luteinizing hormone and plays similar roles in sexual development and function. Published clinical trials from the Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics evaluated HCG as a possible ovulation-inducing treatment in women to increase fertility. Swiss Chems HCG 5000 IU is an extracted form of HCG from the urine of pregnant women.
