HCG Therapy for Men

Meaning

HCG Therapy for Men involves the clinical administration of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG), a glycoprotein hormone, primarily utilized as an adjunct to or, in specific cases, an alternative for traditional Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) for hypogonadism. HCG functionally mimics the action of Luteinizing Hormone (LH), directly stimulating the Leydig cells in the testes to produce endogenous testosterone and maintain testicular size and function. This therapeutic approach is specifically utilized to prevent the testicular atrophy and suppression of natural testosterone production that frequently accompany the use of exogenous testosterone administration. It represents a nuanced strategy focused on preserving the integrity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis.
