With the advance of medical technology, conventional medicine has proven record in treating infertility but with some side effects. In this article, we will discuss gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) : definition, effects, side effects and risk in conventional medication.
I. Definition
Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is a synthesis GnRH hormone which helps to replace or increase the levels of GnRH in stimulating the production of LH and FSH by the pituitary gland
II. How Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone effects infertile women
GnRH may be used for infertile women, after HCG and ovulation dysfunction medication have been failed to stimulate the women reproductive ovulation. The process of LH and FSH production are controlled by the size and frequency of GnRH pulses.
1. Ovulation
At the begining, synthesis GnRH stimulates the low frequency GnRH pulses that cause the pitiutary gland to release FSH that helps to stimulate ovulation and the production of follicle and egg.
2. Egg Extrading
As the follicle mature, synthesis GrNH helps to increase the production of estradiol that stimulates the high frequency GrRH pulses and stops the putuitary in secreting FSH and increases the production of LH leading to egg releasing into the Fallopian tube.
3. Side effects
a) Hot flashes.
b) Mood swings.
c) Vaginal dryness.
d) Decreased sexual interest.
e) Insomnia.
f) Headaches.
4. Risk
a) Bone loss
b) Heart disease
Raising the level of LDL cholesterol and decreasing your HDL cholesterol.
