There are several problems with this post.
You aren't part of this situation — you're a 3rd party.
The topic title you chose is inflammatory.
From what it looks like, this is happening on a different site that has nothing to do with this one.
Based on your description, it sounds like that site is trying to address the matter.
This involves a product that already has a category of its own.
You first put this in Public Square, where it doesn't belong — and it probably doesn't belong anywhere.
Should the individuals impacted be forum members who want to make a first person accusation, there may be a place for that here.
Finally:
Most Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) contains trace levels of endotoxins due to how it is made and harvested. Endotoxins aren't put in deliberately. Rather, they are stubborn, naturally occurring remnants from the bacteria or human sources used to produce the hormone.
Legal prescription hCG of high quality undergoes thorough cleaning so endotoxin levels are safe for people. On the other hand, cheap, illegal, or "underground" versions frequently carry dangerously high levels
Recombinant hCG (Made in Labs)
Most hCG produced with modern, high-tech methods comes from genetically engineered cells grown in a lab. [
1]
- The Cause: Bacteria (such as E. coli) or other cell cultures are frequently used by scientists as "factories" for growing the hormone.
- The Problem: Since endotoxins occur naturally in bacterial cell walls, the raw liquid collected from these labs is full of them. To wash the endotoxins out, manufacturers have to rely on advanced, costly filtering systems. [1]
2. Urinary hCG (Extracted from Urine)
Older or more affordable hCG versions are purified and extracted from the urine of pregnant women. [

- The Cause: Human urine isn't perfectly sterile; it naturally holds various proteins and can readily pick up environmental bacteria while being collected. [1, 2]
- The Problem: When bacteria multiply in the urine after collection and before processing, they leave a large amount of endotoxins behind. Separating the pure hCG from these urinary contaminants calls for an intense, multi-step cleaning process
