HUCOG 5000iu is an injectable medication produced by Bharat Serums and Vaccines Limited, containing Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) as its active ingredient. hCG is a hormone that occurs during pregnancy, primarily secreted by the developing placenta after conception and subsequently by the syncytiotrophoblast, a component of the placenta. One of the applications of hCG is to curb appetite and encourage the body's utilization of fat for energy. Additionally, hCG is employed to induce ovulation, treat infertility in women, and enhance sperm production in men. Bodybuilders also utilize it during steroid cycles and post-cycle therapy to lose weight and boost testosterone levels.

Athletes and bodybuilders often use HUCOG at the conclusion of an anabolic-androgenic steroid cycle to avert muscle tissue breakdown. It plays a crucial role in reinstating the testes' normal functions, as prolonged anabolic steroid use can lead to testicular shrinkage. HUCOG effectively helps return the testes to their normal size. When paired with a very low-calorie diet, athletes can shed excess fat while preserving muscle mass. Women may also use HUCOG alongside a low-calorie diet to eliminate unwanted fat.

Typically, the recommended dosage of HUCOG during a cycle ranges from 500iu to 3000iu weekly (1-3 times per week). Frequent injections can help stabilize the athlete’s blood levels, whereas administering a single large dose may elevate estrogen levels due to the aromatization of testosterone, potentially leading to gynecomastia. Some bodybuilders have reported using 6000iu for six days; however, this poses risks and varies based on individual characteristics. For post-cycle therapy, HUCOG should be administered in smaller doses, around 250-500iu daily for 2 to 3 weeks. These smaller doses are sufficient to initiate the recovery of testicular atrophy. When beginning an hCG cycle, bodybuilders should follow it for a duration of 2 to 3 weeks, with at least one month off in between. It is advised to incorporate HUCOG toward the end of a steroid cycle, ideally in the final week. It can also be combined with Clomid or Nolvadex during post-cycle therapy and continued after the cessation of hCG.

The most serious side effects associated with HUCOG usage may include severe pelvic pain, swelling in the hands or legs, abdominal pain and swelling, shortness of breath, weight gain, diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. Other common side effects comprise headaches, feelings of restlessness or irritability, mild swelling or water retention, depression, and breast tenderness or swelling, along with pain or irritation at the injection site. In boys, hCG can lead to early signs of puberty, such as a deepened voice, growth of pubic hair, and increased acne or sweating.
