Hello! Leupride is a gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist, and it belongs also to a class of drugs called antineoplastics (drugs used in cancer therapy). It is used in advanced metastatic prostatic cancer in men. In women it has many uses like in endometriosis ( a condition where the endometrial tissue presents in the pelvic spaces and areas and bleeds when on periods wich causes pelvic pain and other complication from the blood collection in the pelvic spaces), breast cancer, uterine fibromyoma (a benign tumor of uterine smooth muscle), before uterine surgery. Leupride is also used in infertility.
I hope i have been of help.
