Human Chorionic Gonadotropin: track every shot, units to draw and what's still active
Placental glycoprotein hormone that mimics LH activity; used for ovulation induction in women, testosterone restoration in men with hypogonadism, and historically for cryptorchidism. In the Peppy catalog, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is reconstituted from a vial and drawn up in units on an insulin syringe, dosed in units, typically every other day, with a listed half-life of about 33 hours.

How many units is 250 mg of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin?
It depends on how the vial was mixed. Example: a 1000 mg vial plus 5 mL of bacteriostatic water is 200 mg/mL, so 250 mg is 1.25 mL, or 125 units on a U-100 insulin syringe. Change the water and the units change. Use the calculator above with your own vial, and verify with your prescriber.
