HMG 150 IU by Dragon Pharma, also known as Menotropin, is a laboratory-grade peptide formulation containing a biologically active blend of Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing Hormone (LH). It is researched for its ability to regulate reproductive function and stimulate gonadal hormone production. This dual gonadotropin is widely used in studies focused on fertility, ovulation induction, and testicular function restoration.
Mechanism of Action
HMG acts by mimicking the functions of natural pituitary hormones: FSH and LH. In female research models, it stimulates follicular development and ovulation by encouraging the maturation of ovarian follicles. In male models, HMG increases intratesticular testosterone and activates Sertoli cells to initiate spermatogenesis.
Because it includes both gonadotropins, HMG exerts a broader regulatory effect on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis than single-agent therapies. It is also used in conjunction with hCG in fertility studies to provide a full hormone profile for ovulation and androgen production. Its applications make it relevant in research examining infertility, hormone recovery, and reproductive hormone modulation.
Key Features & Benefits
- Dual Gonadotropin Activity: Contains FSH and LH to stimulate both ovarian and testicular hormone production in research models.
- Used in Fertility Studies: Supports ovarian follicle maturation and spermatogenic stimulation for male and female endocrine research.
- Post-Cycle Recovery Applications: Explored as a complementary agent for restoring natural hormone signaling after hormonal suppression.
- High Purity Formulation: Dragon Pharma delivers clean and precisely measured gonadotropin content in a sterile lyophilized vial.
- Versatile Research Use: Suitable for studies on ovulation, testicular function, infertility, and FSH/LH interaction models.

Frequently Asked Questions
HMG is studied for its dual hormonal effect in fertility research, supporting ovulation in female models and sperm production in male models.
No. HMG contains FSH and LH, while hCG mimics LH only. HMG supports a broader spectrum of hormone regulation in fertility studies.
Yes, HMG is commonly studied as part of post-cycle therapy (PCT) models to aid hormonal restoration after exogenous hormone use.
Store lyophilized HMG at -20°C. After reconstitution, refrigerate at 2–8°C and use within the advised stability period.
