Subject: Lupron to prevent adrenal

It seems that when I posted this the first time it didn't go through.
I'll try again:

Are ferret adrenals only sensitive to FSH when they are young and growing?
By this I am asking if it is likely that an adult pre-adrenal ferret might
benefit from lupron to prevent tumours as was suggested for kits or is it
believed to be only a brief window when it is effective?

Also, do male ferrets develop adrenal tumours as often as females?

Thank you
Jen
