Ovidac (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin Injection) - Product Information

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (Ovidac injection) is used to cause ovulation and to treat infertility in women, and to increase sperm count in men. HCG helps to induce ovulation and pregnancy in the anovulatory, infertile woman in whom the cause of anovulation is secondary and not due to primary ovarian failure, and who has been appropriately pretreated with human menotropins.

HCG is also used in young boys when their testicles have not dropped down into the scrotum normally. In general, HCG is thought to induce testicular descent in situations when descent would have occurred at puberty.
