Endometriosis Prostate Cancer


Description

Decapeptyl 3-month T is a sustained release formulation of triptorelin. Triptorelin is a decapeptide, an analogue of the natural hormone, GnRH. It lowers the levels of the sex hormones in the body and thus suppresses testicular and ovarian functions.

Indications

In men, Decapeptyl 3-month is used for the treatment of a disease of the prostate.  

In women, Decapeptyl 3-month is used for the treatment of certain disorders of the womb such as endometirosis, and in certain cases of female infertility. In the latter case this treatment is usually associated with other hormones (called gonadotrophins) in the course of in-vitro fertilisation (IVF). Decapeptyl is also used for the treatment of Precocious Puberty (onset before 8 years in girls and 9 years in boys)
