How long will HCG last in the fridge?

I received two vials of hcg from my local compounding pharmacy that should get me through 10 weeks. Im reading that this may exceed its refrigerated shelf life. Will it be ok that long?
 
Thats what i assumed however I'm finding forums with guys who are saying 10+ weeks with no noticeable decline (per blood work) for the HCG only protocol. I will call the pharmacy next week to make sure.
 
Empower sells 12000iu vials so generally that stuff has to last 12 weeks
I just asked my Doctor the same question last week. He said that after 8 weeks that HGC reduces in its effectiveness. He said that it is best to buy new after 8 weeks to keep protocol consistent.
 
A doctor that post here says quality control is extreme and its good longer than it says. Also hormones are not consistent so if effectiveness drops off a little it wouldn't be the end of the world. I would be more concerned about contamination. The longer you use it the better the chance of contamination. I don't know if that can be a problem or not.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
