In order to promote spermatogenesis, the treatment needs to last for 6 months or longer. If the sperm count is less than 5 million/ml, urinary gonadotropin should be used in combination for about 12 months. 2.

Pediatric dosage 1) Testicular function test for developmental retardation, 2000 units intramuscular injection, once a day, for 3 consecutive days. 2) Prepubertal cryptorchidism, 1000-5000 units intramuscular injection, 2-3 times a week, discontinue use after good effects appear.

Adverse Reactions

1 When used to promote ovulation, the most common symptoms are ovarian cysts or mild to moderate ovarian enlargement, accompanied by mild bloating, stomach pain, and pelvic pain, which can generally subside within 2 to 3 weeks. Rarely, severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome occurs. Due to the significant increase in vascular permeability, body fluids rapidly accumulate in the chest, abdominal and pericardial cavities, causing a variety of complications, such as decreased blood volume, electrolyte imbalance, hemoconcentration, abdominal hemorrhage, thrombosis, etc. Clinical manifestations include severe pain in the abdomen or pelvic region, indigestion, edema, decreased urine volume, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea, shortness of breath, swelling of the lower limbs, etc. It often occurs 7 to 10 days after ovulation or after the end of treatment. Severe reactions can be life-threatening. 2 When used to treat cryptorchidism, male precocious puberty may occasionally occur, manifested as acne, enlarged penis and testicles, increased pubic hair growth, and rapid height growth. 3 Less common adverse reactions include: breast enlargement, headache, irritability, depression, and fatigue. 4 Occasionally, there is local pain and allergic rash at the injection site. 5. Using this product to induce ovulation may increase the rate of multiple births or cause neonatal immaturity, premature birth, etc.

Precautions

Patients suspected of pituitary hyperplasia or tumors, prostate cancer or other androgen-related tumors are contraindicated (it may promote sexual development). Patients with precocious puberty, undiagnosed vaginal bleeding, uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts or ovarian enlargement, thrombophlebitis, and a history of allergy to gonad-stimulating hormones are also contraindicated.

Drug Interactions

When used in combination with pituitary gonadotropin (such as HMG), adverse reactions may increase and should be used with caution.
