NCT ID NCT07224490

First seen Nov 04, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study gives a single injection of kisspeptin, a natural brain hormone, to 40 adults with and without post-COVID syndrome. By taking blood samples every 10 minutes, researchers measure how the brain's reproductive control center responds. The goal is to understand if long COVID affects fertility and hormone function, not to treat or cure any condition.
