GOODOVA L 5 5S

About

GOODOVA L 5 contains Letrozole 5mg, an oral non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor with significant applications in both oncology and reproductive medicine. In oncology, it is a cornerstone treatment for hormone-receptor positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women, by effectively lowering estrogen levels. In reproductive medicine, it is widely utilized off-label as a first-line agent for ovulation induction in women experiencing anovulation, particularly those diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or unexplained infertility. By temporarily suppressing estrogen production, Letrozole stimulates the pituitary gland to increase the release of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), thereby promoting the development of mature ovarian follicles and facilitating successful ovulation, offering a valuable option for fertility enhancement.
