What is chorionic gonadotropin (HCG)?
Generic Name: chorionic gonadotropin (HCG)
Other Brand Names:

Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is a hormone that supports the normal development of
an egg in a woman's ovary, and stimulates the release of the egg during ovulation.
HCG is used to cause ovulation and to treat infertility in women, and to increase sperm count in
men. HCG is also used in young boys when their testicles have not dropped down into the scrotum
normally. This can be caused by a pituitary gland disorder.
HCG may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.
