Zoladex 3.6mg (goserelin) is a prescription hormonal therapy medication used to treat various conditions in both men and women.
Key Uses
Zoladex works by temporarily stopping the production of certain hormones, like testosterone in men and estrogen in women. This effect is utilized for several medical conditions:
- Prostate Cancer: Used in men to manage symptoms and reduce testosterone levels.
- Breast Cancer: Used in women (often premenopausal) with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer.
- Endometriosis: Used in women to treat this condition by reducing estrogen levels, which helps relieve pain and shrink lesions.
- Uterine Fibroids: Can be used to shrink fibroids and improve anemia caused by heavy menstrual bleeding before surgery.
- Endometrial Thinning: Used as a temporary agent to thin the lining of the uterus prior to endometrial ablation surgery.
