  • Patent number: 11446351
    Abstract: The present invention relates to treating one or more estrogen related diseases while preventing or reducing the likelihood of developing estrogen deficiency related side effects, wherein the composition comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of a Gn RH antagonist to a patient in need of the treatment, and wherein the amount of Gn RH antagonist is sufficient for providing a mean endogenous serum estradiol level of between about 20 pg/ml and 60 pg/ml, preferably between 30 pg/ml and 50 pg/m, in the patient in a treatment period of at least four weeks, without relying on “add-back” therapy. The composition and method are simple, effective and will accordingly both increase patient acceptance and compliance of therapy.
