About hCG / Human Chorionic Gonadotropin
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone produced in pregnancy by the developing embryo soon after conception and later by the syncytiotrophoblast (part of placenta). hCG's role is to prevent the disintegration of the corpus luteum of the ovary and thereby maintain progesterone production that is critical for a pregnancy in humans. Early pregnancy testing, in general, is based on the detection of hCG. hCG is produced also by some tumors, but it is not known whether this production is a contributing cause or an effect of tumorigenesis.
