About Cetrorelix
Competitive GnRH receptor antagonist; immediately blocks pituitary GnRH receptors; rapidly suppresses LH/FSH without initial flare effect; used for controlled hormonal suppression
A GnRH antagonist that rapidly suppresses the HPG axis without the initial flare seen with GnRH agonists. Used in fertility protocols and studied for prostate conditions and hormonal management.

About Leuprolide
Continuous GnRH receptor stimulation causes receptor desensitization and downregulation. This suppresses LH/FSH → testosterone/estrogen to castrate levels. Short-term pulsatile use can transiently stimulate the axis before suppression occurs.
A synthetic GnRH agonist that paradoxically suppresses gonadotropin release with continuous administration via receptor downregulation. FDA-approved for prostate cancer, endometriosis, and uterine fibroids. Used off-label in men's health for HPG axis restart protocols.
