Follitropin Alfa/Beta (Gonal-F / Follistim)

Recombinant FSH used in women for ovarian stimulation during IVF, and in men to stimulate spermatogenesis when combined with hCG.

CategoryFertility
Typical routeSubcutaneous
Half-life~24-36 hours
Common dose rangeFemale stimulation: 75-300 IU/day, per protocol. Male: 75-150 IU, 2-3x/week alongside hCG.
Typical cycle lengthFemale: 8-14 day stimulation cycles. Male: months (spermatogenesis is slow).

BioHack Track models Follitropin Alfa/Beta (Gonal-F / Follistim) at a half-life of 30 hours, so every dose you log is decayed against that curve and the app shows what is still circulating — not just what you typed.

Reconstitution

Pre-filled pens are common; powder forms reconstitute with provided diluent.

Storage

Refrigerate; some pens stable at room temperature short-term per label.

Cautions

Requires close monitoring in women (OHSS risk); male protocols require patience since spermatogenesis takes ~3 months to respond.

Track Follitropin Alfa/Beta (Gonal-F / Follistim) in BioHack Track. Half-life, dose range and route come pre-filled from this library — log a dose and the app counts your vial down, models what is in your system, and puts it on the same chart as your labs and body composition.
