Boost Testosterone and Fertility with HCG Treatment
Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is a hormone that can have powerful effects for both men and women. The FDA has approved injections of HCG for specific conditions ranging from infertility to testosterone deficiency to weight loss. We’re happy to be able to offer this safe, effective treatment.
What Is HCG?
Human chorionic gonadotropin is a hormone that your body makes naturally. It’s made up of a chain of amino acids and functions in the same way as a peptide, telling various cells in your body how they should function. Peptides typically are instrumental in helping your body repair or grow new cells — and HCG handles similar functions.
HCG plays different roles in women’s and men’s bodies. In women, HCG stimulates ovulation and supports the development of the egg and the placenta. When you take a pregnancy test, the test is checking for levels of HCG. HCG is also used in fertility treatment.
In the male body, HCG plays a radically different role. It helps regulate testosterone and enhances your body’s natural production of testosterone. It also gives a boost to male fertility. It can also reverse some of the negative effects of anabolic steroid use. In addition, HCG may be useful for weight loss.
How Is HCG Used Medically?
HCG, which is typically administered by injection, is used to treat several important medical conditions. For men, it can treat testosterone deficiency without affecting fertility. It’s also used for hypogonadism, and it can help reverse the effects of anabolic steroids and improve sexual function. For women, HCG is a key element in fertility treatment, making it possible to control the time of ovulation.
Is HCG Safe?
HCG is a peptide therapy, which means it works with specific, highly targeted cells. Because of this, HCG treatment tends to have few side effects. The FDA has approved HCG injections under a doctor’s care (though you should certainly avoid over-the-counter HCG products, which are not FDA-approved).
HCG should not be used by anyone with prostate cancer, some types of brain cancer, or thyroid disease. In addition, anyone who’s allergic to hamsters is likely to be allergic to commercially produced HCG.
When administered by a medical professional, HCG treatment is considered safe and effective.
HCG for Men: Elevating Your Testosterone Levels With HCG
HCG is critical at every stage of fertility for women. It prompts ovulation — and because its effects are predictable, fertility doctors use it to help time IVF procedures accurately. It also helps eggs mature enough to be ready for ovulation. HCG works to build the placenta so a growing fetus has the food it needs for healthy development — then it helps funnel those nutrients to the fetus.
Have you ever taken a pregnancy test? Then you’ve tested for HCG already. This powerful hormone is what those tests look for. (That means you may need to take multiple tests if you’re trying to get pregnant while taking HCG.)
HCG for Women: Boosting Your Fertility
If you’re concerned about low testosterone levels, HCG treatment might be the solution you’ve been looking for. HCG has a powerful effect on men’s testosterone levels, especially when combined with testosterone replacement therapy. This hormone promotes your natural production of testosterone, complementing the testosterone you receive through therapy. It also keeps the male production of estrogen under control, so the ratio between testosterone and estrogen stays healthy.
In addition, HCG therapy, when combined with testosterone replacement treatment, helps boost mood and energy levels. If you’re considering becoming a father, you’ll be glad to know that HCG also helps improve fertility.
Men with testosterone deficiency can take HCG either with supplemental testosterone or on its own. It helps combat fatigue, decreased sex drive, and depressed mood while also improving sexual function. Men born with hypogonadism can also benefit from HCG treatment, since it boosts the body’s own production of testosterone.
HCG and Weight Loss
HCG hasn’t been approved for weight loss by the FDA, but it’s sometimes used off-label that way. It’s important to avoid over-the-counter or homeopathic HCG products. Instead, you should consult with medical professionals regarding your weight loss journey.
We’re happy to talk to you about weight loss, including HCG and other approved medical weight loss options.
Benefits of HCG Treatment
Men and women can both benefit from HCG treatment. Both can enjoy enhanced fertility, which is vital when you’re hoping to start a family. Weight loss, especially from the belly area, is another benefit available to men and women alike. Men can also see their testosterone levels go up, especially when paired with testosterone replacement treatment. With that, you can expect to experience renewed vigor, a revitalized sex drive, improved mood, and decreased fatigue. Those who use anabolic steroids will also experience a lessening of some of the negative side effects of steroid use.
