Danazol treatment for endometriosis reduced LH, FSH, estradiol, and progesterone levels, with estradiol increasing upon dose reduction or withdrawal.

One-sentence paraphrase of the abstract; not a substitute for reading it. No clinical advice. How this works

Abstract

The LH and FSH levels showed a decreasing tendency during the treatment. There was no significant change in the prolactin and hydroxycortisone values. The estradiol and progesterone significantly fell, although when Danol was withdrawn or the dose reduced there was a striking elevation in the estradiol levels.
