Abstract:
Twenty male cats were treated once or twice with 1 watt/sq cm of
ultrasound for 10 minutes. Each of 24 male dogs received one to three
treatments with 1 watt/sq cm for 10 minutes. Another six dogs were
treated with 2 watts/sq cm for 15 minutes. Four Cebus apella monkeys
were treated with the same dosage as that used for the cats and dogs.
A dosage of 1 watt/sq cm for 10 minutes was also applied to four human
patients without the use of anesthetics, and no pain or side effects
were noted. In all treated animals as well as in human patients the
results indicate that ultrasound significantly suppresses
spermatogenesis according to the dosage and frequency of treatment,
without any effect on Leydig cells or blood testosterone levels.

Local Abstract: [PIP] Ultrasound was tested as a method of
sterilization in cats, dogs, monkeys, and humans, utilizing an
ultrasound machine manufactured by Whitewater Electronics specifically
for this research. 30 male cats were divided into 3 groups, 2
experimental and 1 control. The treated groups received 1 watt/sq cm
for 10 minutes once, or a 2nd time after 48 hours. Testicular biopsies
were made 60 days after treatment. 24 male dogs were divided into 3
groups receiving either 1,2, or 3 treatments within a 1-week interval
with 1 watt/sq cm for 10 minutes. Sperm counts were made for 5
consecutive weeks preceding ultrasound treatment and semen analyses
made weekly. 6 dogs were treated with 2 watts/sq cm for 15 minutes.
Antibodies to spermatozoa were determined by the Kibrick method. 4
South African monkeys were treated with 1 watt/sq cm for 10 minutes;
testicular biopsies were obtained 1 month before treatment and 60 days
after treatment. 1 watt/sq cm for 10 minutes. Testicular biopsies were
obtained 3 weeks before treatment and orchiectomies were performed 14
-17 days after treatment. In all treated animals and human patients,
ultrasound significantly suppresses spermatogenesis accoridng to the
dosage and frequency of treatment, without any effect on Leydig cells
or blood testosterone levels.

My partner and I depend on my oral contraceptives. While I know that
a male equivalent more than likely will not be readily available to us
in the immediate future, I still believe that shared pleasure=shared
responsibility. Male contraception would also open doors for women
who for any reason cannot accept birth control hormones. I think it
is particularly important for men who want to take responsibility for
contraception without permanent sterilization.
> Even though my future lies in medical research in ob-gyn--of which

contraception beyond barrier methods would be a gargantuan step

I'm all for expanding choices too, but ther are a couple of large hurdles to
overcome. Firstly, the technology is a long way from usable. The male pill
in it's current form is experimental, and has more disadvantages than
advantages currently. The supressant to stop the testicles producing sperm
is testosterone, and this has serious side effects including gynomastia
(growing breasts), mood swings (yes, I know we do that anyway!) and an
increase in prostate cancer. Other methods currently fare no better.
There is also a large barrier that is limiting major research - namely
female acceptance. I've known women still insist on taking the pill even
though their husband has a vasectomy with confirmed sterility! My wife
wouldn't trust me to take the male pill, and she wouldn't rely on it anyway.
Her argument is that it would be her that got pregnant, so it's her that has
to take the responsibility for birth control. I don't think that this is
unusual, so the pharmacuetical companies think the market is limited, so
don't put too many resources into development.
But like you, I'd like to see more choices available.

Hello.
I am a biolgy student here at university and I thought I would give my
thoughts on male contraception.
My partner and I depend on my oral contraceptives. While I know that
a male equivalent more than likely will not be readily available to us
in the immediate future, I still believe that shared pleasure=shared
responsibility. Male contraception would also open doors for women
who for any reason cannot accept birth control hormones. I think it
is particularly important for men who want to take responsibility for
contraception without permanent sterilization.
Even though my future lies in medical research in ob-gyn--of which
contraception is a part--I think that expanding the horizons of male
contraception beyond barrier methods would be a gargantuan step
towards improving both male and female reproductive health.
Hello to everyone. I'd like to share my experience with you.
It's more than a year I started testicular heating suspending them in inguinal
canals. I've
become sterile after 2 months (last March). I've to say I'me very satisfied with
this
contraception method (i've avoided a vasectomy).
Initially, I was having problems keeping my testicles in the canals during the
day. Week
after week it has become less difficult and now my testes are always outside my
scrotum,
steady in the canals.
I will continue using this contraception method but, to be sincere, the only
problem I see
is that, after one year, my scrotum has become very small since its skin is
tighter than
before: now, if I try to move my testicles back in their original place, they
immediately go
up in the canals. Now this is very convenient for me, but it's a drawback to
consider.
Ask me questions if you need more infos... :)
Bye,

Just noticed http://malecontraception.googlepages.com
The concept of a catheter that reroutes ejaculate to the bladder while
plugging the penis.
I wonder about the comfort and stability durring sex but it's another
way of thinking.
Actually, there is more information about options and equipment at MCIP's
site, in the heat section of the review paper:
http://www.newmalecontraception.org/heat.htm
Look for the sentence "For details on the types of tools available, click
here."
It ought to be a lot easier to use one of the chocolate warmers, fondue pots,
or wax warmers than to risk scorching oneself pouring hot water in.
Thanks for sharing your interesting experience.

Sorry. I forgot to put the protocal up. The recommended method by Dr.
Vogeli is to immerse yourself in 116 degree water for 45 minutes a
day for 3 weeks. This should result in sterility for 6-18 months
depending (there are recorded incidents of the sterility lasting only
3 months. The urologist that I went to also said that spermatogenesis
could start back in as little as 2 months.)
According to literature, if the water is hotter, and the person can
sustain the entire 45 minutes a day for 45 days, the amount of time
one is steril should increse. But, to increase the heat more than 116
degrees is not safe. Consider that according to officials having any
body part in water that is 120 degrees for 5 minutes will cause a
third degree burn, thus increasing the heat for the 45 minutes even
at a degree will most probably cause significant burns, e.g. my case
with 117 degrees for a short period and the remaining scald.
here's a link for some burn info:
http://www.burnsurgery.com/Documents/scalds_burning_issue.doc
As for effect on libido--no drop in libido. During the treatment, I
was in a sexual relationship and our sex life was just as good if not
better than before. After the treatment, it was significantly better.
I know it is rather cliche, but the fact that I knew that I was
infertile with a semen analysis to back it, caused me to feel more
confident and focused while having intercourse which caused her
arousal to increase with a reciprocating affect on me.
Since I did not have a pre-treatment semen analysis, and since the
mass population wants proof that it is reversible, I decided not to
do the treatment every month intermittently (one full week every
month following the first full three week treatment), and have
another semen analysis in few months...I'll keep you posted.
And in reference to the constriction of the blood vessels to reduce
time, I don't think so. The treatment stops spermatogenesis, which
happens in your testicles, not in your vas deferans or any vessel for
that matter. Further, I don't think that an increase in temperature
could shorten time spent in the sitz bath, because, like a turkey in
an oven or a hamburger on a grill, increasing the heat will only burn
the outside but not cook the inside; which is essentially what you
are doing.
I hope that helps out. If you got any other questions, feel free to
contact me or post on the forum. Take care.

Are you sure you didn't do any permanent damage? I thought the idea
was to avoid scorching yourself during this process. Did you do an
analysis before doing this and did it show normal results? Will you be
doing another analysis after letting yourself recover?

Very interesting results. Can you repeat what you think is supposed to
be the optimum temperature(s) and time(s) for acheiving sterility?
Any effect on your libido that you can notice?
Are you going to continue and have more sperm tests taken?
Since the body would try to "cool" the testical through blood flow do
you think slight restriction of blood flow might increase the heating
effect quicker and reduce the treatment time?
cutvas
Day 1
Items:
I) Bought sitz bath
Procedure:
1) Didn't have nor know of all the necessary equipment.
Results:
A) My bottom (genitals, buttocks, and upper thighs) couldn't endure
entire 45 minutes.
a) Yet, my hand could endure it; was very hot but tolerable.
Day 2-3
Items:
I) Got hot plate
II) Got pot for water and hot plate.
III) Got pitcher for pouring water from hot pot to pitcher to sitz
bath bag.
Procedure:
1) Filled sitz bath with lukewarm water from my bathroom faucet.
2) Filled pot of water with hot water
3) Set pot of water on hot plate.
4) When water was smoking I poured it into pitcher.
5) From pitcher into sitz bath bag.
6) Got into sitz bath.
7) Let the increased temperature water into sitz bath until
intolerable.
A) First immersion was at a very tolerable temperature.
B) Made myself endure the entire 45 as hot as I could tolerate,
shifting from painfully hot to just above comfortably hot.
Day 4-6
Items:
I) Got medical thermometer that went to 108 degrees.
II) Noticing that my scrotum could tolerate significantly higher
temperatures than my things, which also have to be immersed in a sitz
bath, I created a lid for my sitz bath with a hole cut out in the
center such that only my testicles could be immersed. I used a lid
from a large plastic container that I bought at Wal-mart for 1$. It
worked perfectly.
Procedure:
1) Same procedure as above on days 2-3, but with thermometer and sitz
bath lid.
-Since the thermometer did not have the ability to register 116
degrees, I let it rise until it read "HI." I found that if the
water is moderately hot, then it would jump numbers 6 times until it
reached hot. Then, as it became hotter, it would jump numbers 4
times, then 3 at the hottest. Noticing that, I kept it at 3-4 jumps
(crude and inaccurate, but effective nonetheless).
Results:
A) Could get the temperatures significantly higher. Thus, I tried to
push myself to the highest temperature possible--the temp with the
least amount of jumps to "HI."
Day 7
A) Water became too hot and the next morning my scrotum was in pain.
I thought I had scalded myself, but there was no visible sign of any
scalding. Nonetheless, I put vasoline on the painful area throughout
the day and it was fine by the end of the night--when I did my sitz
bath sitting.
Day 8-15
I) I finally bought a cooking thermometer at Linens n Things for 12
dollars.
1) I measured the water before I sat in it, starting at 100-103
degrees and of course ending up at 116-117.
Day 16
Results:
A) While not paying attention and letting the water into the sitz
bath I mildly scorched my scrotum. Also, I measured it against my
medical thermometer and the medical thermometer read a degree higher
every now and then. I also checked it against my own body
temperature, and the cooking thermometer would read anywhere from
99.0-96.8, which tells me that it was slightly innaccurate.
B) It was decent the next day, slightly tender, but nothing to
complain about.
Day 19
A) Severly scorched my scrotum because I was not paying attention to
the thermometer while I was letting in the very hot water from the
sitz bath bag into the sitz bath.
B) It was red, raw, and slightly blistered. It was painful.
Day 20-22
A) Wasn't painful even with the blister (actually the hot water made
it feel better), but the blister didn't heal until I stopped the
treatment.
Day 25
After both three days of abstinence and stopping the sitz wet heat
method, I went for a sperm analysis. The results and comparisons of
the World Health Organization (WHO) standards:
1) Sperm count per milliliter:
Average = above 20 millions/ml
Infertile = less than 20 million/ml
Mine = less than 1.1 million/ml
2) Net sperm count milliliter
Average = above 40 million
Infertile less than 40 million/ml
Mine = less than 5.6 million
3) Net volume of semen
Average = 2ml
Mine = 4ml
4) Sperm motility rates:
A) Rapid motility
Average = 25% or more
Mine = 0%
B) Normal motility
Average = 30% or more
Mine = less than 8%
C) Low motility
Average = 50% or more
Mine = Less than 4%
D) No motility
Average = 0%
Mine = 88%
E) Total motile sperm
Average = above 20%
Mine = .4 million
Summary:
After a lot of trial and error, which if there had been adequate
information on the specifics I could have avoided, these are my final
results.
For Items:
I) Get a cooking thermometer first. Go to any cooking store or a
household appliance store and they should have them (i.e. linens and
things); though wal-mart and target both do not carry it in store,
but do on line. Buy better brand even if it costs a little more
money, the accuracy is extremely important.
To all those of you who live in the U.S.,
This week congressional subcommittees are deciding how much to write in next
year's budget for contraceptive research at the U.S. Agency for International
Development. The chief of USAID was trying to get USAID out of the
contraceptive development business for political reasons, which would be
catastrophic;
we have to write to make sure the subcommittee members know the public
supports this research.
There's a web-form set up on MaleContraceptives.org, so it's easy (link
below). Please take two minutes to do this today or tomorrow.
Thanks,

Yes that is a good Question. I have read about all kinds of methods,
chemical , heat , and of cause injections like depo-provera and
androcure, that essentially cuts donw the Testosteron completely as
far as the testicles are concererned, But not being an expert with
medical knowledde I have been wondering if ELECTRONIC maddage pulsing
with a TENS, also called EMS and STIM, will have an effect, maybe even
better that heat. I don't like chemicals, and leaving the Testicles to
make some Testosteron to keep healthu or feeling better without HRT
maybe the STIMMING will recuce the sexual energy so called and
essentially provide a sort of contraseption. I asked that question
similar and was emmediatelu "banned" from the Eunuch Archives forum so
these areas of Contraseption, Eunuchism, etc do overlap but is not
looked at seriously. If You come across any infromation on if STIMMING
can provide Contrasectption in some way - please let me know.

Since I have not heard anything from You "EXPERTS" and I still want to
know - what really goes on in the "reproductive" system, I still
pursue this question: Does using Electro Sex called STIMMING reduce
the "Sexual; Energy" also called Testosterons some and also the Sperm
Count ". The Heating method I understand does reuce the sperm cout
after a long and lengthy heat - process - weeks and months.
Castration by Chemical or surgical means, the chemical Androcure and
Depo-Provera -injectioons is reversable for a while but does reduce
the T. level to what is called a pre-puberty level. The Surgical does
it all at once and remains permanent. The testosteron then comes from
anothe gland source (peputiary - I thinkg). Now in either of these two
types HRT is needed to keep the person (now call eunuch) to a proper
level of T. If there was a way to reduce it balls T. level without
getting them done altogether, and getting the T. Level as well as the
Sperm Count down to "safe" levels, maybe the Heat and the STIMMING
will work similarly, and if someone knows this, the STIMMING (using a
TENS unit ont he balls on a regular basis, will - my guessing- be
working similarly without cutting the balls off entirely. So my
question is, does HEAT and STIMMING using a TENS unit both reduce the
Testosteron level - how much and - is it reversable - after what time
and what does it do - how fast will it reduce the T. level ?? THe heat
methode takes an awfully long time and I have still no clue if it also
causes a reduction in the T. level ??? What do You experts sau ???
These are overlapping fields - contraceptives and castration - but the
knowledge base should be able to cover all aspects even it they
overlap ..Hi Write me an email alsp.(no spellcheck-sorry)
N3RF@... N3RF
There was a link commonly referenced in these posts, whereby the "do
it yourselfers" can elicit more information on various means,
cautions, possible repercussions, etc., of male contraception if they
so desire. The link was:
http://www.gumption.org/mcip/paper.html
I attempted to connect to the link, but it simply sends me to the new
mcip (male contraception information project) site with limited
information on the cautions and hazards of attempting at home methods
of male contraception. It would be most appreciated if someone could
either 1) post the new link to that page, or 2) post the information
on that page on this message board. This would be a tremendous help
to me in particular because I am on my 19th day of 116 degree hot
baths, and I would like to know the possible repercussions. I've
found some new data from Harvard that both affirm and negate the
efficacy of hot baths, yet I would appreciate the old data from the
other page as well. Here's the link to that paper for those of you
whom are curious:
http://www.andrologyjournal.org/cgi/reprint/20/2/189.pdf
I will post the story/methodology/results of my experimentation when
when it is completed as well. Thank you so much. And take care all.
I like to ask the contraceptivfe group , besides sterility sought what methods -
reduce the Testosteron level ??
I am using TENS and I am thinking it also reduces -some people call the "sexual
Energy" and I would like to know if it also makes a man "sterile" and
specifically - does it reduce the T - level. The goal in my mind is to bring it
down with some low cost method ? to Pre-Puperty T level and keep it there ? for
some time ? or permanently.
When You talk chemical or surgical Castration you spend lots of money and also
have to supplement the male with HTL (hormonal supplements later) that also cost
money. So with Your all effort in Conceptive technology, how does it answer my
questions and what are the overlap if You also look at the Castration aspect -
reversible or not ??

Why do you say suspensory technique is not effective? I'm now having
sex without "protections" and my wife is not pregnant (I'm already
father).
The only problem is keeping testicles "suspended" al the time. Have
you had the same problems?
Thanks,
M

Dear M,
I did hot baths for more than 2 years. I have posts in the
archives. I also played with the suspensory method that I found at
http://www.puzzlepiece.org/bcontrol/malebc.html
Also see message 175 to this group by Dr. Lissner, where she
references the same web site. I would read every message that Dr.
Lissner has written to this group.
I have read messages in this group that say that suspensories are not
very effective. But they might be a very useful complement to to
extend the effectivenss of hot baths. I would like to see someone
try such a combination and provide results.
The recent posts on electrical heaters are also interesting.

I have found a heating device at www.hotronic.com that may work well
for testicular heating. The M3 and M4 models have a small heating
element and a rechargeable battery pack. It is unlike other heating
garments in that it is stripped down and shouldn't be too difficult to
apply to the testicles.
Someone that is more experienced with the heating methods, take a look
and see if this has any potential. The downside is that it is fairly
expensive. Still, I think it would be much better than spending all
that time taking hot baths.

I have located a heating device that might work. Check out the M3 and
M4 setups at www.hotronic.com They contain a circular heating element
and a small rechargeable battery pack. It also has adjustable
temperature settings. In contrast with other heating garments, this
one is just a bare heater that could probably be put anywhere.
I am not experienced with the use of testicular heating. Would
someone that is experienced give there opinion on the potential of the
Hotronic heater?
I've heard and read that the practice of binding one's testicles
before intercourse was a method used by men in India. I've also heard
from some college sex educators that this works due to the fact that
the testicles need to rise up for the sperm to travel into the vas
deferens. Has anyone heard this as well? Has anyone tried it?
Thanks,
Travis
Undescended testes are linked to higher rates of testicular cancer. There
are not any studies about what you are doing that I know about, but there
could be a similar risk. Even if the risk does not increase, testes can
become cancerous. If you are going to do this for a long time, at least
make sure you take them out periodically and check them to make sure they
are not developing any strange lumps, nodules...

Is there somebody who can share his experiences with me? I
n the meantime i've begun using testicular heating technique. I'm
keeping my testicles in my canals since one month. At the beginning
the feeling of not having testicles in their place was a bit strange,
but now I'm used to it. I return my testicles in their natural home
only when I practice sports (I do swimming and I don't want others to
ask where my balls are...). In january I'm going to do a sperm exam
to understand if I'm finally sterile.
Bye,
M.
