Nafarelin
FDA approved
Sexual and reproductive
How it works
A nasal-spray GnRH copy: only a few percent reaches blood, yet enough to switch off the pituitary and estrogen. For endometriosis.
What it's made of
10 amino acids: GnRH with a D-naphthylalanine, a very fatty artificial amino acid, at position 6. More potent and longer-lasting than the natural hormone.
What it's for
- Prescribed for
- Endometriosis in adult women, for 6 months, and central precocious puberty in children.
Educational satire, not medical advice.
