What Is Gonadorelin?

Gonadorelin is a synthetic GnRH peptide that stimulates the pituitary gland to release LH and FSH, which in turn signal the testes to maintain function. It is used as an alternative to HCG in TRT protocols, particularly following FDA regulatory changes affecting compounded HCG.

What It May Help With

Similar to HCG, gonadorelin is used to maintain testicular function and support fertility in men on TRT.

Who May Be a Candidate

Gonadorelin is appropriate for men on TRT who want to maintain HPG axis function. Provider evaluation required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions

Is gonadorelin the same as HCG?

No. They work through different mechanisms. HCG mimics LH directly at the testes. Gonadorelin acts at the pituitary to stimulate LH and FSH release. Both aim to maintain testicular function during TRT but through different pathways.
