Norethisterone enanthate has neither a direct effect on the testis nor on the epididymis: a study in adult male cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis)Aris Junaidi

Institute of Reproductive Medicine of the University, Domagkstrasse 11, , Germany
Biol Reprod 69:582-91. 2003..We speculate that the presence of a single-stage/multistage organization might simply reflect germ cell clonal size. Our findings further indicate that sperm competition in primates is not reflected at the level of testicular function...
