| | Gonadotropin treatment for infertility - [Medication] - Quest Diagnostics Patient Health Library |
 | | Gonadotropins should only be used by doctors who are specially trained in infertility and who are familiar with the management of possible complications. |  | | During gonadotropin treatment, frequent monitoring of egg follicle development is necessary. |  | | This suggests that about 40% of women receiving gonadotropin therapy go on to have a baby. |

| | HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) |
 | | Gonadotropin therapy is very effective in the prevention of testicular atrophy and to use the body?s own biochemical stimulating mechanisms to increase plasma testosterone level during training. |  | | Be sure to discuss with your doctor side effects and any other concerns associated with your treatment prior to beginning therapy. |  | | Pregnyl should not be used by individuals with asthma, by boys who have not yet reached puberty or by individuals with decreased kidney function, epilepsy, heart failure or by individuals who are in the treatment of migraine. |

 | | His study contrasts with other studies in that it looked only at women with evidence of ovulation, whereas most other studies have not distinguished between ovulatory and anovulatory women, he said. |  | | The study also found that ovulatory obese women are no less likely to become pregnant during assisted pregnancy than women who are not obese, said lead investigator William Dodson, MD, Professor, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Penn State University, Hershey, Pennsylvania, United States. |  | | Dodson and colleagues reviewed the charts of 338 infertile couples who initiated superovulation with exogenous gonadotropins and intrauterine insemination (SO-IUI). |

| | Gonadotropin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A third human gonadotropin is human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), produced by the placenta during pregnancy. |  | | Gonadotropin deficiency due to pituitary disease results in hypogonadism. |  | | As a simplified generalization, LH stimulates the Leydig cells of the testes and the theca cells of the ovaries to produce testosterone (and indirectly estradiol), while FSH stimulates the spermatogenic tissue of the testes and the granulosa cells of ovarian follicles. |

 | | The appearance of HCG in serum and urine, as early as 7-10 days after conception and its rapid rise in concentration are the most reliable indication for early diagnosis of pregnancy. |  | | Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is a glycoprotein hormone produced by the trophoblastic cells of the developing placenta at the time of blastocyst implantation. |  | | Therefore, specific antibodies made to the beta subunits are used for the specific determination of HCG and other hormones. |
