Gonadotrophy

Gonadotrophy is a type of hormone therapy used to treat a variety of conditions related to reproduction and sexual development. It works by supplementing the body with hormones that regulate the production and release of reproductive hormones. The hormones involved are testosterone, estradiol, progesterone, and luteinizing hormone (LH). Gonadotrophy is used to treat a variety of conditions, including infertility, hormone imbalance, delayed puberty, and precocious puberty. It is also used in the treatment of certain types of cancers such as testicular cancer, ovarian cancer, and endometrial cancer. Additionally, it is used to treat certain types of gender dysphoria. Gonadotrophy is administered through injections, pills, or implants. The type of hormone therapy and the dosage are tailored to the individual patient's needs. The side effects of gonadotrophy can include acne, fluid retention, increased risk of blood clots, and changes in mood. For women, gonadotrophy may cause irregular menstrual periods, breast tenderness, and facial hair growth.
