A nurse is providing teaching to a client who has prostate cancer and a new prescription for leuprolide.The nurse should explain to the client that leuprolide treats prostate cancer by which of the following actions?

Choice A rationaleLeuprolide, a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist, decreases testosterone production by downregulating the pituitary gland, which in turn reduces the stimulation of the testes to produce testosterone.Choice B rationaleLeuprolide does not directly kill cells at all stages of cellular division. Its primary action is to reduce hormone levels, particularly testosterone, which can influence cancer cell growth.Choice C rationaleLeuprolide does not increase estrogen levels in the body. Its function is to decrease androgen (testosterone) levels, which are implicated in the growth of prostate cancer cells.Choice D rationaleLeuprolide does not suppress the production of growth hormone. Its main effect is on the pituitary-gonadal axis, leading to decreased production of sex hormones like testosterone. .
