What are the effects of leuprolide on vascular health, including its influence on endothelial function and arterial stiffness?
Leuprolide, used primarily in hormone therapy, may impact vascular health by potentially increasing arterial stiffness and impairing endothelial function, though more research is needed.
Leuprolide may worsen endothelial function and increase arterial stiffness, potentially elevating cardiovascular risk. This is a concern in long-term use.
Leuprolide, used primarily in hormone-sensitive conditions, could impair vascular health by increasing arterial stiffness and compromising endothelial function.
Studies suggest that leuprolide therapy can negatively impact vascular health, manifesting as increased arterial stiffness and reduced endothelial function.
