Prostamax- Summary
- Triptorelin is a synthetic decapeptide analog of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) with 100x the potency of native GnRH. An FDA-approved drug (Trelstar) for prostate cancer and precocious puberty, it is also used in post-cycle therapy (PCT) to rapidly restart the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis after anabolic steroid suppression.
- Prostamax is a tetrapeptide bioregulator (Lys-Glu-Asp-Pro) developed by Professor Vladimir Khavinson, tissue-specific for the prostate gland. It supports prostate epithelial cell function, promotes normalization of prostate tissue, and is studied for its potential in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), prostatitis, and prostate anti-aging. It is one of the more widely used Khavinson bioregulators among men over 40.
