Ovidac 10000 I.U. (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin)

Ovidac 10000 iu have HCG, or Human chorionic gonadotropin, hanging out in your body in fluctuating amounts but not always there like other hormones-progesterone and estrogen. It is used for different reasons in men and women. The hormone is typically made by the cells in a placenta and plays a crucial role in maintaining the pregnancy. It signals your body to produce high amounts of progesterone, which supports a pregnancy. Because HCG is produced naturally in the body, the hormone can treat certain health conditions. The US FDA has approved uses for HCG that are different for men and women but can be used as a fertility therapy for both. 

Female Fertility

The most common use is as an injection to treat infertility in women. The medication can be given in combination with fertility drugs to increase a woman’s chance of conceiving a baby. If you are doing in vitro fertilization (IVF), you may be prescribed HCG to improve your body’s chance of sustaining the pregnancy. 

Male Fertility

In men or adolescent boys, HCG shots support the production of testosterone hormone, ultimately increasing the sperm count. Doctors may prescribe this medication in male children with cryptorchidism, a birth problem of the testicles.

Usage Instructions

Ovidac is available in the form of injection, which should be used under the doctor’s supervision. Your doctor will decide the correct dose as per your condition. In general, the dose usually depends on the condition you are being treated for.

Follow the steps carefully if you are self-injecting the drug at home. You may experience slight bleeding or bruise after receiving the injection. Injecting the drug can also be painful if you don’t know the right technique. Therefore, do not self-inject the medicine if you do not understand the usage instructions.

Precautions

Before you receive HCG, tell your doctor if you have ever had a heart problem, thyroid gland disorder, or an ovarian cyst. Your doctor should also be aware of all the other medications you have been using, as many of these medicines may make HCG less effective or change the way it works. Inform your doctor if you get pregnant or are breastfeeding. You should avoid alcohol consumption during the treatment and follow your doctor's advice about diet restrictions while taking medicine.
