Abstract

Estradiol, or testosterone, and a variety of C-19 and C-18 synthetic steroids with androgen- or estrogen-like biological activity given to the neonate induce sterility in the adult. Pregnanes are not active in this respect. Those competing with estrogens and androgens (progesterone) protect the neonate against the deleterious effect. These compounds are active in the neonate whether injected repeatedly or given only in one injection (Table 4.1). In most studies rodents (rats or mice) were the test animal of choice, but other mammals and even birds are sensitive.
