Pharmacological properties

Gestrenol is a hormonal tablet for cats that helps regulate sexual desire in animals. Gestragen and estrogen direct their effect on the hypothalamic-pituitary system, reducing the secretion of the gonadotropic hormones FSH and LH from the pituitary gland. Due to this, females’ eggs mature and are released more slowly, and sex hormones are produced.

During the use of Gestrenol, unacceptable reactions and subsequent calls of the male or female are corrected. Two active ingredients allow you to reduce hormones up to 50 times, which increases the effect of the drug. The tablets immediately enter the gastrointestinal tract, are detected in the liver, and leave the body in the urine after 48 hours. The tablets are recognized as a low-hazard drug and in acceptable quantities do not have a negative effect on the cat’s body.
