A member asked:
Does decapeptyl drug shrink cancer cells in endometrium lining, or does the decapetyl just stop estrogen thus stopping growth of endometrosis. ??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Decapeptyl: Decapeptyl is available in certain countries for a variety of uses. It's important to discuss with your doctor why it was prescribed and for what treatment. If you have endometrial cancer then surgical and chemotherapeutic treatments need to be discussed
