Manufacturer: Serum Institute

Pharmaceutical name: Human Chorionic Gonadotropin

Pack: 1 ampoule (10000 iu +solution)

HCG Sifasi-HP 10000 iu is a polypeptide hormone known as human chorionic gonadotropin, commonly referred to as HCG. This hormone is produced during the fertilization of the egg or by the syntrophoblast shortly after conception. HCG Sifasi-HP 10000 iu supports the healthy development of the egg and facilitates its release from the ovary at ovulation.

 

HCG Sifasi-HP 10000 iu is a well-purified medication administered via muscle injection to address infertility in women, low sperm production in men, and disorders of the pituitary gland, particularly conditions preventing the normal maturation and descent of testicles in young boys.

 

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) is a polypeptide hormone produced by the syncytiotrophoblast, part of the fertilized egg after conception. It plays a crucial role in the healthy maturation of eggs in women's ovaries and stimulates egg release during ovulation.

 

HCG is significant in treating infertility in women and enhancing sperm production in men. It comes in a package containing sterile lyophilized powder and bacteriostatic water as a solvent.

 

HCG is utilized in the following situations: treating female infertility, boosting sperm count, and assisting young boys whose testicles have not descended into the scrotum as expected.

 

HCG is a water-soluble glycoprotein derived from the urine of pregnant women, consisting of two subunits: alpha and beta. A single HCG injection triggers ovulation within 38 to 40 hours. HCG mimics the action of luteinizing hormone (LH). Alongside follicle-stimulating hormone, it is involved in the development and maturation of ovarian follicles, and the mid-cycle LH surge that initiates ovulation. HCG serves the same purpose as LH in the body, promoting the ovulation process in women facing infertility. It also stimulates the corpus luteum in the ovary to produce progesterone.

 

In men, HCG encourages testosterone production and boosts sperm count, acting on the interstitial cells of the testes to promote androgen production.

 

You should avoid using Human chorionic gonadotropin if you: have an allergy to HCG; suffer from thyroid or adrenal gland disorders; experience precocious puberty; have heart issues; face prostate problems; have kidney disease; suffer from epilepsy; have migraines; suffer from asthma; have liver disease; are pregnant or planning to become pregnant; or are breastfeeding.

 

The appropriate dosage will be determined by your doctor after evaluating your condition, age, gender, and weight. The dosage can vary significantly between patients, so it is essential to follow the doctor's specific prescription.

 

HCG should be administered exactly as directed by your doctor, either as a subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. Your pharmacist or physician will provide guidance on how to properly administer the medication. Use this drug strictly as prescribed; do not exceed the recommended amount or duration, and adhere to your prescription label.

 

In the event of an overdose, consult your doctor immediately. Seek medical assistance promptly if you notice any unusual symptoms. Try to take the medication at the same time each day to minimize missed doses. If you do miss a dose, consult your doctor instead of doubling the next dose.

 

Like all medications, HCG may cause side effects. Common side effects include restlessness, depression, headaches, breast tenderness, pain and swelling at the injection site, nausea, and constipation.

 

Always keep your doctor informed about all medications you are currently taking. Provide a comprehensive list of both prescription and over-the-counter medications, along with any existing health conditions. This information will help your doctor assess potential interactions with HCG.
