2. Background

Trestolone (7α-methyl-19-nortestosterone) is a synthetic androgen developed by the Population Council as a potential candidate drug for use in hormonal male contraceptive methods.

In males, regular administration of sufficient quantities of trestolone may induce a temporary state of infertility.

Research on this compound has focused on its androgenic activity and its ability to suppress sperm production while maintaining hormonal effects in the body.
