How does GonaCon work?
A. The single-shot, multiyear vaccine stimulates the production of antibodies that bind to GnRH. GnRH is a hormone in an animal’s body that signals the production of sex hormones (e.g., estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone). By binding to GnRH, the antibodies reduce GnRH’s ability to stimulate the release of these sex hormones. All sexual activity is suspended, and animals remain in a nonreproductive state as long as a sufficient level of antibody activity is present.
