| pubmed-article:15053070 | pubmed:abstractText | Infertility represents one of the main sequelae of cytotoxic therapy given for various malignant diseases. Because dividing cells are more sensitive to cytotoxic effects than are cells at rest, it has been hypothesized that inhibition of the pituitary-gonadal axis may facilitate the preservation of future gonadal function. The aim of our study was to find a quick, reliable and economic way to suppress the pituitary-gonadal axis by combining GnRH-agonists with GnRH-antagonists in order to preserve future gonadal function. | lld:pubmed |
