Abstract
Spraying estradiol-17β, progesterone or norethisterone intranasally in adult male rhesus monkeys (7.5-11 kg BW) at a daily dose of 30 µg/day for a period of 60 days resulted in a decrease of testicular size, arrest of spermatogenesis and a significant reduction in serum levels of testosterone. No changes were observed in the solvent-treated controls.Keywords
