Implementation

In 2001 it was reported that a combination injection of testosterone (male sex hormone) and norethisterone enanthate (NETE) every six weeks completely stopped sperm production in 13 of 14 volunteers. There were some side effects and more studies need to be performed before this injection would become available to the public.
