- To produce luteinization of a persistent follicular cyst: If effective, will convert from proestrus to estrus in 1-2 days and sexual behavior should stop within 2 weeks.
- Infertile bitches cycling normally with low progesterone due to lack of corpus luteum formation: Give on days 10-11 of heat cycle or when vaginal smear indicates breeding readiness. Breed 2 days after administration.
- Male infertility secondary to low testosterone, LH and FSH: Add PMSG 20 Units/kg SC 3 times weekly. Continue for 3 months. Once spermatogenesis ensues, may continue with HCG only.

- To reduce feather plucking (especially in female birds): Dosage is empirical. If no response in 3 days, repeat. If reduces feather plucking, will need to repeat after 4-6 weeks. Repeated usage reduces time between treatments.

| Treatment of persistent follicles during the early transition period | 1000-5000 Units | IM/IV | once | — | 🌎 NA |
| To hasten ovulation and reduce variability of estrus after prostaglandin synchronization | 1500-3300 Units | IM/IV | once | — | 🌎 NA |
- Cryptorchidism (Foals): Note: Many clinicians believe that medical treatment is unwarranted and that surgery should be performed.
- To induce ovulation in early estrus (dominant follicle >35 mm): Preferable to treat mare 6 hours before mating.
- Treatment of persistent follicles during the early transition period: Results are variable.
- To hasten ovulation and reduce variability of estrus after prostaglandin synchronization: Give 5-6 days after the second prostaglandin treatment or on the first or second day of estrus.

概覽
HCG 是一種從孕婦尿液中提取的多肽激素,主要模擬黃體生成素 (LH) 的作用,並具有部分濾泡刺激素 (FSH) 的活性。在獸醫學中,廣泛應用於多種動物的繁殖障礙治療,如牛的囊腫性卵巢、隱睪症,以及用於 HCG 刺激試驗以評估性腺功能。
作用機轉
HCG is a glycoprotein that primarily mimics the action of luteinizing hormone (LH), with minor follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)-like activity.
- In Males: Binds to LH receptors on testicular interstitial (Leydig) cells → stimulates differentiation and androgen (testosterone) production → promotes testicular descent and spermatogenesis.
- In Females: Binds to LH receptors on the ovary → stimulates the corpus luteum to produce progesterone → triggers ovulation of mature follicles. In bitches, it also induces estrogen secretion.
安全性與警告
禁忌症
- Androgen-dependent neoplasias (e.g., prostatic carcinoma)
- Precocious puberty
- Known hypersensitivity to HCG
- Pregnancy (FDA Category X in humans, unless specifically indicated for reproductive management)
不良反應
- Hypersensitivity reactions / Anaphylaxis
- Pain at the injection site
- Antibody production leading to diminished efficacy (with repeated use)
- Abortion in mares if given prior to the 35th day of pregnancy
- Gynecomastia, headache, depression, irritability, and edema (reported in humans)
注意事項
Warning: Antibody production to this hormone has been reported after repetitive use, resulting in diminished effect.
- Pregnancy: FDA Category X in humans (risk of use clearly outweighs any possible benefit). May cause abortion in mares prior to the 35th day of pregnancy due to increased estrogen levels.
- Administration: Must be given parenterally; it is destroyed in the GI tract if given orally.
監測
- Testosterone levels (for HCG challenge test in males)
- Progesterone levels (for HCG challenge test in females)
- Resolution of clinical signs (e.g., cessation of estrus behavior, resolution of cystic ovaries)
- Signs of hypersensitivity or anaphylaxis post-injection
藥物動力學
吸收
Destroyed in the GI tract after oral administration; must be given parenterally. After IM injection, peak plasma levels occur in about 6 hours.
分佈
Distributed primarily to the ovaries in females and to the testes in males. Some may also be distributed to the proximal tubules in the renal cortex.
排除
Eliminated from the blood in a biphasic manner. The initial elimination half-life is about 11 hours and the terminal half-life is approximately 23 hours.
過量
No overdosage cases have been reported with HCG in veterinary medicine.
