About HCG Pen
Human chorionic gonadotropin in a pre-filled 3 mL research cartridge.
Human chorionic gonadotropin is a heterodimeric glycoprotein of 237 amino acids across two subunits. The alpha subunit is shared with LH, FSH and TSH; the beta subunit is unique to hCG and is what every pregnancy test on the market detects.
Supplied strictly as a research compound, not as a licensed medicine. hCG also exists as a prescription pharmaceutical used in fertility medicine, which is a separate product in a separate regulatory category.
Research mechanism
hCG research centres on:
- LH/CG receptor agonism — the same receptor as luteinising hormone, with a substantially longer half-life
- Gonadal steroidogenesis — Leydig-cell and ovarian production models
- Beta-subunit immunoassay — the analytical basis of pregnancy and tumour-marker testing
- Glycosylation variants and their distinct receptor behaviour
Research applications
- LH/CG receptor signalling research
- Gonadal steroidogenesis models
- Reproductive endocrinology research
- Immunoassay calibration and reference standards
- Comparative glycoprotein hormone studies

Frequently asked questions
How is the HCG Pen supplied?
As a pre-filled 3 mL cartridge containing 300 units, holding 5000 IU in 3 mL. It arrives in solution, so no reconstitution step is required. Store at 2–8°C and protect from light. A lot-specific Certificate of Analysis is available on request ahead of dispatch.
How does the pen differ from the vial?
The compound is the same. The vial is supplied as a lyophilised powder for reconstitution; the pen arrives already in solution in a sealed cartridge. Both are stored refrigerated at 2–8°C. The pen removes the reconstitution step.
Why is hCG measured in IU rather than milligrams?
Glycoprotein hormones are standardised by biological activity against an international reference preparation rather than by mass. Glycosylation varies between batches and directly affects potency, so an activity-based unit is the meaningful measure — the same reason insulin and HGH are also expressed in IU.
