How it works
From the US prescribing label for the same active substance (Danazol). It describes the substance, not this exact product.
Danazol suppresses the pituitary-ovarian axis.
This suppression is probably a combination of depressed hypothalamic-pituitary response to lowered estrogen production, the alteration of sex steroid metabolism, and interaction of danazol with sex hormone receptors.
