🔬 How This Medicine Works (Pharmacology)
Pharmacokinetics
How It Works
This medicine acts by binding to luteinizing hormone (LH) receptors on the surface of Leydig cells in the testes and granulosa cells in the ovaries. By mimicking LH, it stimulates the final maturation of ovarian follicles and triggers ovulation in women. In men, it stimulates Leydig cells to produce testosterone and supports spermatogenesis. It also has slight thyroid-stimulating activity due to its structural similarity to TSH.
