    Summary · context
    Fifty EP girls (sexual maturity rating: 2-3) with chronological age (CA) 9.22 ± 0.56 and bone age (BA) 9.74 ± 0.59 years were treated with GnRHa (Triptorelin) at a dose of 100 μg/kg body weight (BW) as intramuscular every 28 days for 2.82 ± 0.57 years;

    In the control group, 33 EP girls followed for the same period without treatment.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone3

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).
