Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG)
HCG is a hormone used alongside Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) to help maintain the body’s natural testosterone production. It stimulates the testes to continue producing testosterone and sperm, helping prevent testicular shrinkage and preserving fertility. Adding HCG to your TRT plan supports hormonal balance, reproductive health, and ensures your body continues to function optimally during therapy.
Price: starts at $80/month
Dosing may be adjusted based on your goals and provider recommendation.
How is HCG administered?
HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) is typically administered via subcutaneous injection, meaning it’s injected just under the skin, usually in the abdomen or thigh. The injections are relatively easy to self-administer with a small needle, similar to how insulin is injected. Your healthcare provider will give you specific instructions on dosage and frequency, which is often done a few times a week, depending on your individual needs and treatment plan.
Benefits of HCG
Testosterone Production
HCG mimics luteinizing hormone (LH), stimulating the testes to produce natural testosterone — supporting hormonal balance, especially during TRT.
Fertility Preservation
Unlike standalone testosterone therapy, HCG maintains sperm production by keeping the testes active, helping preserve or restore fertility.
Prevention of Testicular Atrophy
By maintaining intratesticular testosterone, HCG helps prevent shrinkage of the testes often associated with long-term TRT.
Mood, Energy & Libido Support
By supporting natural hormone signaling and testicular function, HCG may enhance energy levels, mood stability, and sexual health — especially in men with secondary hypogonadism.
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) — Supporting Testosterone Production & Fertility
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) is a hormone that plays a crucial role in preserving the body’s natural testosterone production during Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT). While TRT injections can sometimes reduce the body’s ability to produce its own testosterone, leading to testicular shrinkage and reduced sperm production, HCG works to stimulate the testes, helping to maintain natural testosterone levels and fertility.
Key Advantages of HCG:
Maintains Natural Testosterone Production
Supports Fertility
Prevents Testicular Atrophy
- Enhances Hormonal Balance
- Boosts TRT Effectiveness

When added to Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT), HCG helps preserve natural testosterone production, prevent testicular shrinkage, and maintain fertility.
HCG stimulates the testes to produce testosterone, which helps prevent the shrinkage that often occurs when the body reduces its natural testosterone production during TRT. This ensures your testicles continue functioning normally, even while on hormone replacement therapy.
HCG is beneficial for men on TRT who want to preserve fertility, prevent testicular atrophy, and maintain natural testosterone production. A healthcare provider will evaluate your individual needs and determine if HCG is a good addition to your TRT therapy.
HCG is typically administered via subcutaneous injection, similar to how other hormones are delivered in TRT. Your healthcare provider will guide you on how to properly use HCG injections to ensure the best results.
Yes, HCG helps maintain sperm production and preserve fertility while undergoing TRT. It is a crucial addition for men who are concerned about their ability to conceive while on hormone therapy.
When used under medical supervision, HCG is safe for long-term use alongside TRT. It helps preserve the benefits of testosterone therapy while mitigating the risks of testicular shrinkage and fertility issues.
