How can I get hCG?
The FDA has classified hCG as a drug which means that it will require a prescription and cannot legally be sold as an over-the-counter medication. It’s legally by HCG you will need a physicians prescription, and a licensed US pharmacy will be able to fill your prescription and in many cases can even ship your medication to you.
NovaGenix understands that navigating the recent FDA
ruling on compounded HCG and its limited availability can be confusing and
costly for patients. That's why we are here to assist you in finding solutions.

knowledge and experience, we can help you find the most suitable and
cost-effective options available. At NovaGenix Health and Wellness, our
ultimate goal is to empower you to lead a happier and healthier life, and we
are ready to support you in navigating the challenges of accessing HCG.
To properly mix and inject HCG for Testosterone therapy,
follow these steps:
1. Begin by washing your hands thoroughly with soap and
water for at least 20 seconds to ensure cleanliness.
2. Gather all the materials you need for the process. This
includes bacteriostatic water, HCG vials, a reconstitution syringe and needle,
alcohol wipes, and a Sharps container for safe disposal. If you plan to inject
after reconstitution, prepare a second syringe, needle, and alcohol wipe to
avoid contamination.
3. Prepare all of the materials by removing the caps from
the bacteriostatic water and HCG vial. Sterilize the tops of both vials using
an alcohol wipe. These can be found at just about any local pharmacy such as a
CVS or Walgreens. Attach the needle to the syringe, being careful not to touch
the needle with your fingers. Avoid letting the needle rest on any surface or
come into contact with anything to prevent contamination.
4. Draw up the appropriate amount of bacteriostatic water
into the syringe. The amount of water needed depends on the size of the HCG
vial and the desired concentration. For example, a typical 10,000iu vial,
you'll need 10 mL of bacteriostatic water. Pull air into the syringe up to the
required amount, then pierce the stopper of the bacteriostatic water vial. At
this concentration a 500iu injection would be 0.5mLs of hCG, which measures 50
units on the provided insulin syringe. You can also mix a 10,000iu vial with 5
mL of bacteriostatic water. At this concentration, the same 500iu injection
would only be a 0.25 mL injection. By adding half the water, you’ll increase
the concentration of medication and require a smaller volume of medication per
injection but still receive the same amount of hCG per injection.

5. Slowly inject the air into the vial, allowing the syringe
to adjust if you feel any pressure. Press the plunger again until all the air
is out of the vial and the bacteriostatic water is in the syringe at the
appropriate amount. Avoid any contact between the needle and the HCG vial to
prevent contamination.
6. Pierce the stopper of the HCG vial with the needle of the
syringe containing the bacteriostatic water. Slowly push the water into the
vial, taking caution and stopping if you feel pressure. Often these vials are vacuum
sealed and will draw the water in automatically due to the difference in
pressure. It will make it easier to draw the hCG out of the vial and into the
thin insulin needle for injection later if the vial of hCG is slightly
pressurized. This can be done by injecting a little extra air into the bottle
until you feel some light resistance on the plunger. Be careful to not over
pressurize the vial as this can cause you to have difficulty measuring the
medication when filling the syringe.
7. Gently swirl the solution in the HCG vial until the
powder and bacteriostatic water are fully combined. Avoid shaking or
aggressively mixing the medication. Once the powder is fully dissolved, there
should be no visible powder in the vial.
8. If you are ready to inject the HCG, use a new needle,
syringe, and alcohol wipe. Follow the guidance of your medical provider and
pharmacy for administering subcutaneous injections, as HCG injections are
typically done subcutaneously.
9. After reconstitution, immediately refrigerate the HCG.
Prior to mixing, the powdered HCG can be kept at room temperature, but once the
bacteriostatic water is added, it should be stored in the fridge. Reconstituted
HCG can generally be used for up to 60-90 days from the date of reconstitution.
10. In the event that you accidentally leave the HCG out of
the refrigerator, it is likely still usable, but avoid leaving it
unrefrigerated for more than 72 hours and never in heat or direct sunlight.
Remember, always consult your medical provider and follow
their instructions for the specific administration and usage of HCG for
Testosterone therapy.
