OTHER HEALTH INFORMATION: The toxicological properties of sGnRHa have
not been thoroughly investigated. The actions are similar to luteinizing hormone releasing
hormone (LHRH, Gonadotropin releasing hormone, GnRH) in humans. LHRH is the key
mediator in the liberation of the pituitary gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone (LH) and
follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). LHRH may modify reproductive ability by
influencing plasma gonadotropin levels and comcomitantly gonadal steroid levels.
