How does leuprolide influence muscle mass and strength over time, and what are the implications for physical activity and rehabilitation in patients receiving treatment?
Leuprolide, used in hormone-sensitive cancers, reduces testosterone, leading to potential losses in muscle mass and strength, affecting physical activity and rehab outcomes.
Leuprolide, a GnRH agonist, can reduce testosterone levels, leading to decreased muscle mass and strength. This may impair physical activity and necessitate adjusted rehabilitation strategies.
