AI summarySynthesized from FDA + DailyMed + ClinicalTrials.gov data
Chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a naturally occurring hormone produced during pregnancy, approved as an injectable biologic for fertility treatment. It is used to trigger final oocyte maturation and ovulation in assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles and to support luteal phase progesterone production. The drug mimics the endogenous LH surge required for reproductive function.
