Triptorelin is a synthetic formulation that inhibits the release of gonadotropins. This means it decreases sex hormone levels in both men and women. In men, it inhibits the release of luteinizing hormone from the pituitary gland, lowering testosterone levels. It prevents the ovaries from releasing estrogen in women. Endometriosis, prostate cancer, and precocious puberty are all treated with triptorelin injections. It is often given intramuscularly. Triptorelin can have side effects that range from pelvic pain to erection issues.
