Effect of centchroman on lipid metabolism in genital organs of female rhesus monkeys (macaca mulatta)
Item Type: Article
Editor:
Year: 00/06/1987
Abstract: Effect of Centchroman (3,4-trans-2, 2-dimenthyl-3-phenyl-4-p (B-pyrrolidinoethoxy)-phenyl-7-methoxy chroman)treatment at 1 and 2.5 mg/kg; for 3, 6 and 12 months on lipids constituents of uterus,cervix and vagina was studied. Centchroman did not cause any consistent pattern of alteration in lipid contents of uterus, cervix and vagina of female rhesus monkey. However, uterine phospholipids were decreased at both the doses and cervical and vaginal triglycerides increases at higher dose. The altered nature of responses in the genital organs may be due to manifestation of estrogenic-cum-antiestrogenic properties of centchroman.

Effect of norgestrel and testosterone on male rats
Item Type: Article
Editor:
Year: 00/06/1987
Abstract: Intramuscular administration of Norgestrel, an orally active progestogen, to male rats for 48 days interrupted spermatogenesis and also caused a temporary loss of libido. Testosterone therapy restored libido in progesterone treated rats but not the spermatogenic process. Consequent upon these findings, a new combination of Norgestrel and Testosterone, capable of inducing temporary sterility in male rats, has been evolved.
