02 / Mechanism
How it is thought to work
GnRH agonist; a single dose surges LH/FSH. Repeated use shuts testosterone DOWN
03 / Potential benefits
What people use it for
One-time restart after a steroid cycle
Strong human evidence
Large human trials exist. Effects are well described, at least for the approved use.
Listed uses are what people use it for, not proven outcomes.
04 / Known risks
Side effects and risks
Hot flashes; repeated use causes chemical castration
Risk level 7 of 10
High risk score: serious harms are documented or plausible, and there is little data to rule them out.
Unknown long-term effects count as a risk, not as a clean record.
