What is HMG?
Human Menopausal Gonadotropin (HMG), also known as menotropin, is a purified preparation of gonadotropins extracted and purified from the urine of postmenopausal women. HMG contains approximately equal biological activity of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), both of which are glycoprotein hormones essential for reproductive function. FSH stimulates follicular development in ovaries and spermatogenesis in testes, while LH triggers ovulation and maintains corpus luteum function in females, and stimulates testosterone production in males. The glycoprotein structure includes alpha and beta subunits, with the beta subunit conferring biological specificity. HMG’s balanced FSH/LH ratio makes it particularly valuable for research into natural gonadotropin physiology, follicular development, ovarian response, and reproductive endocrinology, contrasting with recombinant FSH preparations that lack LH activity.
