Choriomon is a medication used for various therapeutic purposes. Let’s explore its details:

1. Pharmacodynamic Properties:
   • Highly Purified Choriomon has Luteinizing Hormone (LH) activity.
   • LH is essential for normal female and male gamete growth, maturation, and gonadal steroid production.
   • In females:
     • Choriomon serves as a substitute for the endogenous mid-cycle LH surge, inducing the final phase of follicular maturation and ovulation.
     • It is also used during the luteal phase.
   • In males:
     • Choriomon stimulates Leydig cells, promoting testosterone production.
2. Pharmacokinetic Properties:
   • After a single injection, maximal plasma levels of Choriomon are reached approximately six hours later.
   • It is approximately 80% metabolized, primarily in the kidneys.
   • The apparent elimination half-life is about 2 days after intramuscular injection (IM).
   • Accumulation does not occur.
3. Uses:
   • In Females:
     • Ovulation induction in infertility due to anovulation or impaired follicle-ripening.
     • Preparation of follicles for puncture in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation programs (ART).
     • Luteal phase support.
     • Treatment for threatened and habitual abortion.
   • In Males:
     • Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (also positive response in idiopathic dysspermias).
     • Delayed puberty associated with insufficient gonadotropic pituitary function.
     • Treatment for oligospermia.
4. Dosage:
   • After reconstituting the freeze-dried substance with the solvent, the Human Menopausal Gonadotrophin solution should be slowly administered intramuscularly.

Choriomon is a valuable tool in reproductive medicine, aiding both men and women in various fertility-related conditions. Always follow proper medical guidance when using this medication.
