Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) Market Report by Technology (Natural Source Extraction, Recombinant Technology), Therapeutic Area (Female Infertility Treatment, Male Hypogonadism, Oligospermic Treatment, and Others), End User (Fertility Clinics, Research Institutions, and Others), and Region 2024-2032
The global human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) market size reached US$ 973.5 Million in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 1,768.4 Million by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.65% during 2024-2032. The rising incidences of infertility in women, increasing prevalence of hypogonadism-related disorders, and production of HCG using recombinant technology represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is a chemical produced by syncytiotrophoblastic cells of the placenta during pregnancy. It is found in blood, urine, liver, colon, and pituitary glands. HCG stimulates the corpus luteum to produce progesterone to maintain the pregnancy. It is extracted and purified from the urine of pregnant women for clinical applications using various techniques, such as ion exchange chromatography, dye-affinity chromatography, nanofiltration, and reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). HCG is widely used to treat infertility, increase the chances of pregnancy, help in the production of testosterone and sperm, and treat cryptorchidism in male children. It also aids in diagnosing and monitoring pregnancy-related disorders, prenatal screening, and gynecological cancers.
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) Market Trends:
The rising incidences of infertility among females due to uterine disorders, blocked fallopian tube, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), and endocrine system disorders are among the key factors driving the market growth. HCG is widely used in various assisted reproductive technologies, such as in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and intrauterine insemination (IUI), to treat female infertility, as it aids in inducing ovulation, promotes the formation of the embryo, facilitates correct timing of oocyte retrieval, increases endometrial thickness, and improve endometrial receptivity. In addition to this, the widespread product utilization in combination with other fertility drugs to increase the chances of pregnancy in women is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, the increasing application of HCG to improve testosterone levels, enhance fertility, and promote sexual function due to the increasing prevalence of hypogonadism-related disorders in males suffering from obesity and type 2 diabetes is favoring the market growth. Additionally, the production of HCG using recombinant technology that provides identical properties, enhanced efficacy, and improved safety compared to naturally sourced HCG and enhances patient tolerance is positively influencing the market growth. Other factors, including the rapid development of healthcare infrastructure, increasing availability of treatment and services regarding infertility, rising geriatric population, extensive research and development (R&D) activities for the launch of novel purification and extraction technologies, and the implementation of various government initiatives to improve the sexual health of people, are anticipated to drive the market growth further.
