A member asked:
Is lh and hcg the same hormone?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Lh stands for luteinizing hormone - it is produced normally by the ovaries during the menstrual cycle. Hcg is human chorionic gonadotropin. This is a hormone most often produced only during pregnancy (or in very rare rumors).
