Werkingsmechanisme
Goserelin
As a GnRH agonist, goserelin binds to the GnRH receptors of the pituitary gland. Initial stimulation transiently raises luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). With continuous receptor occupancy, however, the receptors become desensitized and down-regulated, which reduces LH and FSH secretion and consequently the production of testosterone or estrogen. This mechanistic relationship is documented in the pharmacological literature.
Nafarelin
Nafarelin is a potent GnRH agonist: after an initial stimulation ('flare'), continuous receptor occupancy leads to downregulation and thereby suppression of LH, FSH and the downstream sex hormones.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between Goserelin and Nafarelin?
- Goserelin is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)", while Nafarelin is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)". Goserelin: Goserelin is a synthetic decapeptide and an agonist of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). The medical literature describes it as a hormonal agent that suppresses the release of sex hormones through sustained receptor stimulation. Regulatory-approved indications include prostate cancer, advanced breast cancer, endometriosis, and endometrial thinning, among others. Nafarelin: Nafarelin is a GnRH agonist and the only member of this class delivered as a nasal spray. It is approved for treating endometriosis and central precocious puberty. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
- Which peptide is better supported by science, Goserelin or Nafarelin?
- The highest available evidence level is "Humane RCT" for Goserelin and "Humane RCT" for Nafarelin. A higher evidence level means more robust data, but says nothing about suitability for an individual. The full body of evidence is on each peptide's own page.
- What is the legal status of Goserelin and Nafarelin in Germany and the United States?
- Duitsland: Goserelin — Op recept, Nafarelin — Op recept. Verenigde Staten: Goserelin — Op recept, Nafarelin — Op recept. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
