Abstract
Testosterone enanthate (TE) and oestradiol valerate (EV) in varying dose combinations were subcutaneously injected every alternate day for 10 or 20 days to adult male mouse of proven fertility. Such therapy resulted in suppression of fertility without affecting libido. The main possible cause of fertility inhibition appears to be testicular dysfunction as evidenced by histology and biochemistry of the reproductive organs.
