Preserves spermatogenesis on TRTHsieh 2013: 26 hypogonadal men on TRT plus 500 IU HCG every other day held testosterone at 1,055 ng/dL with no azoospermia and 35% partner pregnancy.
Maintains intratesticular testosteroneHolds intratesticular T at near-baseline (~7% drop versus ~94% on TRT alone) and prevents testicular atrophy.
Triggers ovulation in fertility protocolsStandard agent for ovulation induction in IVF and timed-conception cycles.
Restarts the HPG axis post-cycleUsed at 1,500–3,000 IU two to three times weekly for hypogonadotropic hypogonadism or post-cycle recovery.
HCG is a glycoprotein hormone naturally produced in pregnancy that mimics luteinizing hormone (LH) at the testicular Leydig-cell receptor. In men it drives endogenous intratesticular testosterone and sperm production; in women it triggers ovulation as part of fertility protocols. It has decades of human clinical use, well outside the typical "research peptide" category.
