Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG)

hCG is a hormone the body makes during pregnancy. It mimics LH, a hormone that drives the testes and ovaries to produce sex hormones.

It's studied in reproductive-hormone research — how the body regulates reproductive-hormone production and testosterone.

Its clinical use in hormone conditions and fertility is well documented. Weight-loss claims have been rejected by regulators.

Distinguishes established clinical findings from early human trials, animal experiments, or laboratory cell culture findings. No human dosing, injection instructions, or treatment recommendations are provided.

hCG is the active ingredient in FDA-approved Pregnyl and Novarel. The FDA has alerted against fraudulent over-the-counter weight-loss claims.

BBOHC LABS research reagents are non-clinical materials. An FDA approval for a finished medicine containing the same active ingredient does not imply that BBOHC's investigational research vial is FDA-approved.

Possible breast enlargement or fluid retention in animal steroidogenesis assays.
