GlossaryDeslorelin

synthetic hormone mimicking GnRH, used in veterinary medicine

Deslorelin is a synthetic hormone that mimics gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). It is used primarily in veterinary medicine to manage reproductive functions, such as inducing ovulation in animals or controlling estrus (heat) cycles. In some cases, it is also used to treat hormone-sensitive conditions like prostate issues in dogs.
