To get MD5 hash in C# use this method. It returns same value AS MD5() function in PHP

        public string GetMD5Hash(string input)
        {
            System.Security.Cryptography.MD5CryptoServiceProvider x = new System.Security.Cryptography.MD5CryptoServiceProvider();
            byte[] bs = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(input);
            bs = x.ComputeHash(bs);
            System.Text.StringBuilder s = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
            foreach (byte b in bs)
            {
                s.Append(b.ToString("x2").ToLower());
            }
            string password = s.ToString();
            return password;
        }

And this one is in PHP

These both will return the same value
