How does Leuprolide therapy impact androgen levels in men, and what are the implications for managing conditions like prostate cancer or hormonal imbalances?
Leuprolide, a GnRH agonist, reduces testosterone production, aiding in managing prostate cancer and hormone-related disorders by diminishing androgen levels.
Leuprolide reduces testosterone production by inhibiting luteinizing hormone release, crucial in managing prostate cancer by slowing tumor growth.
