HMG 0.15 mg

How it works

Human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG), generically called menotropins, is a biologic gonadotropin preparation with follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) activity. Calling it an "HMG peptide" is chemically misleading: it is not a small synthetic research peptide.

The current U.S. MENOPUR product is purified from the urine of postmenopausal women and is supplied as a specific prescription kit with defined activity, excipients, diluent, and device components.^[1] An online vial labeled HMG is not automatically the same finished product.

Benefits & side effects

MENOPUR is FDA-approved for development of multiple follicles and pregnancy in ovulatory women as part of an assisted reproductive technology cycle.^[1] Its labeling requires evaluation of infertility, exclusion of pregnancy and primary ovarian failure, and treatment by clinicians experienced in infertility care with access to appropriate monitoring.

This grade A evidence does not make "HMG" an approved treatment for every infertility diagnosis, male fertility, testosterone restoration, bodybuilding, weight loss, anti-aging, or general wellness. Other countries and products may have different labels; any statement of approval must name the exact product, jurisdiction, and indication.
