    Summary · context
    Healthy premenopausal women were randomized to receive 3.75 mg triptorelin (T) on days 1 and 29 with 25 mg exemestane (EX) or matched placebo once daily for 8 weeks, from day 1 to day 56.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone8

In this study, Triptorelin (Trelstar, Decapeptyl) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Triptorelin (Trelstar, Decapeptyl).

    Summary
    Mean plasma estrogen levels (AUC(day 36-57)) were significantly lower for subjects who received T + EX than for subjects who received T alone (20.6 vs. 54.0 pg d/ml [-62%; P < 0.05], and 38.9 vs. 198.0 pg d/ml [-80%; P < 0.01] for E(2) and E(1), respectively).
