Freezing HCG in unmixed vial

[Surferguy]

Hi I have a question about freezing HCG.

I have a frozen vial (just the powder) of HCG that expired in august 2020.

Since that time I have kept the vial in the freezer.

Now I want to do HCG again but am nervous as this vial has been expired in the freezer

I read that I can get a pregnancy test to see if my HCG works but then I read on another forum that’s not a good indicator

I would have no concerns about the HCG. Since you haven't mixed it, I'm sure it's good.

Thank you. It’s just that it expired in august

I use expired date HCG all the time. I've never had any issues with the strength.

I've often stocked up and kept the unmixed vials in the freezer. Reconstitute and go for it - ignoring the expiration dates. Never had any issues.

How much does HCG cost in the US?

I can get a 12,000 IU vial for $72 USD.

How long does that last?
Who prescribes that for you?
Is there a primer on HCG on the site?

How long it lasts depends on your prescribed dose. If you take 500 IU per week, a 12,000 IU vial would last you right at 24 weeks. At a 1,000 IU per week dose, the vial lasts about 12 weeks.

Prescribed by my doc at Defy Medical.

Primer? You should have your doc "prime" you on it.
