In the female: Ovulation induction in infertility due to anovulation or impaired follicle-ripening. Preparation of follicles for puncture in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation programs. Luteal phase support. In the male: Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (also cases of idiopathic dysspermias have shown a positive response to gonadotropins). Delayed puberty associated with insufficient gonadotropic pituitary function.Cryptorchidism not due to anatomical obstruction
Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), a polypeptide hormone produced by the human placenta, is composed of an alpha and a beta subunit. The alpha sub-unit is essentially identical to the alpha subunits of the human pituitary gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone (LH), and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), as well as to the alpha subunit of human thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). The beta subunits of these hormones differ in amino acid sequence.
