Gonadorelin is the synthetic version of the naturally occurring gonadotropin hormone-releasing hormone (GnRH). GnRH is considered to be a major regulator in the secretion of gonadotropins, i.e. follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), both of which are considered to manage and regulate the endocrine functioning and maturation of the gonads

Gonadorelin is a synthetic peptide composed of ten amino acids, all joined to one another in a sequential form.⁽²⁾ Gonadorelin is structurally similar to the endogenous GnRH.  Structurally identical to the endogenous GnRH hormones, Gonadorelin has been dubbed a GnRH agonist by researchers and exhibits some potential in regulating the levels of gonadotropins and maintaining regular reproductive functions.⁽²⁾
