HCG 5000iu

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) is a glycoprotein hormone composed of alpha and beta subunits, naturally produced by placental tissue. As a structural analogue of luteinising hormone (LH), it binds LH receptors in the gonads, making it a widely studied compound in reproductive endocrinology and hormonal-signalling research. Researchers have used it to investigate gonadotropin receptor activation, steroidogenesis, Leydig cell stimulation, and hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis feedback, with its extended half-life (approximately 36 hours versus endogenous LH) making it a practical tool for sustained receptor stimulation in experimental protocols. Each vial contains 5000IU of lyophilised powder and is HPLC-verified. Requires reconstitution with bacteriostatic water prior to use. For research use only. Not for human use.
