Human chorionic gonadotropin is a common hormone in our body. Generally speaking, it has a normal floating range. How much should it be under normal circumstances?
What is the normal value of human chorionic gonadotropin?
First: although it is important, many people do not know what hCG is. In fact, hCG is a glycoprotein secreted by trophoblast cells of placenta, which is composed of α - and β - dimer glycoprotein. Generally speaking, the normal value of human chorionic gonadotropin is 0-5
Second: next, let's introduce the function and name of this hormone. Human chorionic gonadotropin, also known as hCG in English, is usually secreted on the 6th day after fertilization. On the 7th day after fertilization, it can be detected in the serum or urine of pregnant women. It is often used as the diagnostic criteria for early pregnancy,. It disappeared about 1-2 weeks after delivery.
Third: it is not difficult to see that the main role of this hormone is to stimulate our sex hormone secretion, which is conducive to the continuous secretion of estrogen and progesterone, accelerate the formation of women's uterine decidua, and make the placenta grow and mature gradually. After women complete the production, human chorionic gonadotropin will fall to the normal level
matters needing attention
