Abstract
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists are potent suppressors of ovarian androgen biosynthesis even in the face of severe hyperandrogenism (e.g., hyperinsulinemia, hyperthecosis). Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists are clinically useful in the context of hirsutism. The use of Gn-RH-a in the context of hirsutism is not duration-limited in that the induced hypoestrogenism and its consequent complications are likely to be effectively managed by the concurrent provision of estrogen replacement therapy.
