Cetrorelix
A synthetic decapeptide antagonist of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) that rapidly suppresses luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), preventing premature ovulation during controlled ovarian stimulation for assisted reproduction. Unlike GnRH agonists, it does not cause an initial hormonal flare. It is administered by subcutaneous injection during in vitro fertilization cycles.
