1 Serum human chorionic gonadotropin levels are correlated with body mass index rather than route of administration in women undergoing in vitro fertilization–embryo transfer using human menopausal gonadotropin and intracytoplasmic sperm injection  Karen E Elkind-Hirsch, Ph.D., Sandra Bello, M.D., Lori Esparcia, B.S., Kathy Phillips, Alex Sheiko, Milton McNichol, M.D.  Fertility and Sterility  Volume 75, Issue 4, Pages (April 2001) DOI: /S (00)

2 Figure 1 Correlation between BMI and serum hCG levels measured 12 hours after administration in all patients. A significant negative correlation is observed regardless of route of administration (r=−0.83, P<.0001). The highest levels of hCG were measured in women with the lowest BMI.
