Abstract: Depression and PTSD are treated by administration of hCG, or an hCG analog, or a prodrug or metabolite of hCG or an hCG analog, in an amount equivalent to a subcutaneous dose of 50-200 IU, preferably 120-170 IU, more preferably 140-160 IU, of hCG per day.

Abstract: A gonadotropin is administered within a surprisingly effective narrow range for the purpose of treating chronic pain or other central sensitization sequelae. In one aspect, a recipient is provided with at least one of human chorionic gonodotropin (uHCG and/or rHCG), a pharmaceutically active HCG analogue, and a pharmaceutically active metabolite of the HCG or analogue at a dosage selected to provide, or be equivalent to, a human subcutaneous dosage of between 120 IU/day and 170 IU/day of HCG, and more preferably between 140 IU/day and 160 IU/day of HCG. A kit is also described, which includes a supply of the HCG-related drug, a delivery device, and a label that identifies chronic pain or central sensitization as an indication of the drug.
