  • Title: Effect of dihydrotestosterone on testicular and accessory gland function in male rhesus monkeys.
    Author: Ramakrishnan PR, Kaur J, Rajalakshmi M.
    Journal: Contraception; 1989 Jul; 40(1):111-27. PubMed ID: 2505969.
    Abstract:
    Pituitary, testicular and accessory gland functions were assessed at intervals of 10-20 days in adult male rhesus monkeys given 10, 100 or 1000 micrograms dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Circulating levels of LH and testosterone were suppressed. Ejaculated spermatozoa showed morphological abnormalities and decrease in motility but sperm counts were unaffected. Seminal fructose was decreased in animals receiving DHT. Sexual behaviour was maintained in these animals.
