Relugolix blocks the GnRH receptor in the anterior pituitary gland, reducing the secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), thereby lowering estrogen levels in the body. This mechanism is very effective in treating uterine fibroids and endometriosis, because the development and progression of these diseases are closely related to high levels of estrogen.
