Ovidac (Generic Human Chorionic Gonadotropin Injection) Ovidac Injection (Generic Human Chorionic Gonadotropin Injection) is used in females to help conception occur. It is usually given in combination with other medicines such as menotropins and urofollitropin. Many women being treated with these medicines usually have already tried clomiphene alone (e.g., Serophene) and have not been able to conceive yet.

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is also used in in vitro fertilization (IVF) programs. Chorionic gonadotropin is a medicine whose medical effects are almost the same as those of Luteinizing Hormone (LH), which is produced by the pituitary gland. © Clearsky Pharmacy ( www.clearskypharmacy.biz )

Ovidac (Generic Human Chorionic Gonadotropin Injection) In males, LH and Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (Ovidac injection) stimulate the testes to produce male hormones such as Testosterone. Testosterone causes the enlargement of the penis and testes and the growth of pubic and underarm hair. It also increases the production of sperm.

Although Human Chorionic Gonadotropin has been prescribed to help some patients lose weight, it should never be used this way. When used improperly, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (Ovidac) can cause serious problems.

Ovidac (Generic Human Chorionic Gonadotropin Injection) Uses of Ovidac Injections Prepubertal cryptorchidism not due to anatomical obstruction. In general, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is thought to induce testicular descent in situations when descent would have occurred at puberty. HCG thus may help predict whether or not orchiopexy will be needed in the future. Although, in some cases, descent following HCG administration is permanent, in most cases, the response is temporary. Therapy is usually instituted between the ages four and nine.

Selected cases of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (hypogonadism secondary to a pituitary deficiency) in males.
