Description

Letrozole is an inhibitor of aromatase that prevents the formation of estrogens; it is clinically used to treat hormone-responsive breast cancer and infertility and to terminate pregnancy. Letrozole exhibits anticancer chemotherapeutic and anti-estrogenic activities. In vivo, letrozole increases secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH), lengthens the follicular dominance period, and delays subsequent follicular waves.
