Mechanism of action

By binding to GnRH receptors in the pituitary gland, triptorelin embonate triggers a cascade of downstream effects that ultimately lead to the suppression of gonadotropin secretion, resulting in decreased levels of sex hormones such as testosterone and estrogen. This mechanism is exploited to treat hormone-sensitive cancers and other conditions.
