Hucog 10000 IU Injection is a hormone-based treatment commonly used to manage infertility in women and hypogonadism in men. It mimics the natural human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) hormone, which plays a key role in reproductive health and hormone regulation.
Composition
Active Ingredient: Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) – 10000 IU
Uses of Hucog Injection
Female Infertility: Induces ovulation in women who are not ovulating, helping to release mature eggs from the ovaries for conception.
Male Hypogonadism: Treats low testosterone levels in men, which can help in:
Stimulating the onset of puberty (in cases of delayed puberty)
Improving sperm count in cases of male infertility
How Hucog Injection Works
In women, Hucog stimulates the final maturation and release of eggs (ovulation), mimicking the natural surge of LH (luteinizing hormone).
In men, it helps the testes to produce more testosterone, aiding in sperm production and the development of secondary sexual characteristics.
