People working through fertility questions with a provider
Anyone whose hormone plan calls for supporting natural production

Gonadorelin is a synthetic form of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). It signals the pituitary gland to release luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone, the messengers that drive the body’s own reproductive-hormone production. It is used clinically in fertility and pituitary testing, and alongside testosterone therapy to help preserve testicular size and fertility in men.

Gonadorelin is a lab-made copy of GnRH, the brain hormone that signals the body to make reproductive hormones. Its structure was decoded in 1971. Most human studies are in people with hormone or fertility conditions.
FDA approved two gonadorelin products, in 1982 and 1989. Both have been discontinued, so no FDA-approved version is sold today, and none of these studies was in men taking testosterone. Your free consultation with a nurse practitioner is the place to talk through what is and isn’t known.
Most peptides are not FDA-approved for the uses discussed publicly, and are prescribed at the discretion of a licensed provider after an individual evaluation. A peptide is not appropriate for everyone, and individual results vary.
Peptide therapy at Cienega Medical is available by prescription only. You start with a consultation with one of our nurse practitioners, who reviews your health history, your goals, and whether a peptide is appropriate for you. If it is, they write the prescription and we prepare it for your visit. If it is not, they will tell you that too.
Gonadorelin is a synthetic form of gonadotropin-releasing hormone, or GnRH, a hormone the hypothalamus produces naturally. GnRH signals the pituitary gland to release the hormones that in turn signal the testes and ovaries. Gonadorelin has a longer history in conventional medicine than most peptides discussed online: it has been used in fertility medicine and in diagnostic testing of pituitary function. In men receiving testosterone replacement therapy, it is sometimes prescribed to maintain the body’s own hormonal signaling during treatment.
Gonadorelin is a synthetic version of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), which the hypothalamus produces naturally. It signals the pituitary gland, which in turn signals the testes or ovaries. Testosterone replacement can suppress the body's own hormonal signaling, and gonadorelin is sometimes prescribed alongside it to help maintain that signaling, though this is not an FDA-approved indication. Whether that approach makes sense for you is a clinical decision to discuss with your nurse practitioner at the free consultation.
Gonadorelin has been the active ingredient in FDA-approved products used for fertility and for diagnostic testing, though those products are no longer marketed in the United States. Its use alongside testosterone therapy is not an FDA-approved indication. Your nurse practitioner can explain that distinction at your free consultation.
Gonadorelin is not right for everyone. Your nurse practitioner reviews your health history, current medications and any existing conditions before prescribing and will tell you if it is not a fit. Bring your current medication list to your free consultation.
Bottle prices are listed on this page. Every order includes one medication review fee, which covers the review and managing your prescriptions, and is charged once even when prescriptions go out as separate orders the same day. The consultation itself is free.
Pick a time for a free telehealth visit with a nurse practitioner, by phone or video. Before your visit, you fill out a short health form. They go through your health history, your current medications and what you are trying to achieve, then tell you whether this is a sensible fit. Not everyone is, and if you are, they write the prescription and you pay for your bottles plus one medication review fee.
Your prescription is filled by a licensed U.S. 503A compounding pharmacy.
That depends on what your provider prescribes, so it is not something we can put a number on here. Your nurse practitioner tells you at your review roughly how long a bottle should last for you and when it would make sense to order again. You can order as many bottles as your nurse prescribes while you’re on the call, and when you need more, book another call online or call us. Each call where you order adds one $49 medication review. Nothing renews on its own. If you’d like bottles sent on a regular schedule, ask your nurse: it’s worked out case by case, since everyone’s prescription is different.
Both. Collect at West Hollywood, Santa Monica or Calabasas, where we pack it for you and show you how to inject it, all covered by the medication review fee. Or we ship it to your home anywhere in California, at no extra charge.
