title: [Gossypol and other nonhormonal substances for the inhibition of male fertility].
abstract: Several international articles dealing with 3 substances, which act as a male contraceptive agent, were reviewed. The drugs gossypol, alpha-chlorohydrin and 6-chloro-6-deoxyglucose caused a reversible infertility without disturbances of sexual potency, but their toxic side effects exclude a clinical application at present.
