A progonadotropin, or hypergonadotropin, also known as a gonad stimulant, is a type of drug which increases the secretion of one or both of the major gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). This, in turn, results in increased function and maintenance of the gonads and increased gonadal steroidogenesis of sex hormones such as androgens, estrogens, and progestogens. Progonadotropins are the functional opposites of antigonadotropins. They have clinical applications in the treatment of hypogonadism and infertility. Conversely, hypergonadotropic effects can occur as a side effect of some drugs. Examples of progonadotropic drugs include gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists when administered in a pulsatile (as opposed to continuous) manner, anties

  • A progonadotropin, or hypergonadotropin, also known as a gonad stimulant, is a type of drug which increases the secretion of one or both of the major gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). This, in turn, results in increased function and maintenance of the gonads and increased gonadal steroidogenesis of sex hormones such as androgens, estrogens, and progestogens. Progonadotropins are the functional opposites of antigonadotropins. They have clinical applications in the treatment of hypogonadism and infertility. Conversely, hypergonadotropic effects can occur as a side effect of some drugs. Examples of progonadotropic drugs include gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists when administered in a pulsatile (as opposed to continuous) manner, antiestrogens such as tamoxifen, clomifene, fulvestrant, and aromatase inhibitors like anastrozole, and, only in men, pure antiandrogens such as flutamide, bicalutamide, enzalutamide, and apalutamide.

  • Progonadotrofinas, hipergonadotrofinas ou estimulantes gonadais são uma classe de fármacos composta por drogas que aumentam a secreção de uma ou ambas as principais gonadotrofinas, que são o hormonio luteinizante (LH) e o hormônio folículo-estimulante (FSH). Essa ação aumenta a atividade e regulação das gônadas e eleva a esteroidogênese gonadal de hormônios sexuais como andrógenos, estrogênios e progestógenos. As progonadotrofinas funcionam de modo oposto em relação às antigonadotrofinas. Elas são usadas clinicamente no tratamento de hipogonadismo e infertilidade. Por outro lado, efeitos hipergonadotrópicos podem ocorrer como um efeito colateral de alguns medicamentos. Exemplos de drogas progonadotrópicas incluem agonistas do hormônio liberador de gonadotrofina (GnRH) quando administrados de maneira pulsátil (em oposição ao modo contínuo); antiestrogênios como tamoxifeno, clomifeno, fulvestrante; os inibidores da aromatase como anastrozol; e, em homens, os antiandrógenos puros, como flutamida, bicalutamida, enzalutamida e apalutamida.
