GnRH Receptor

GnRH-R

Receptor Reproductive

The pituitary receptor that decides whether LH and FSH are released. It only responds to PULSES. A steady signal desensitises it and shuts the axis down completely, which is why the same drug can restart testicular function or chemically castrate depending on how it is dosed.
