Leuprorelin belongs to a class of medications called gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists. It works by balancing your hormones and treating conditions related to hormone levels in your body. It is used to treat breast cancer, advanced prostate cancer, endometriosis (a condition in which the tissue that normally lines the inside of the uterus grows in other places), uterine fibroids (abnormal non-cancerous growths in the uterus) and precocious puberty (premature puberty in children).
