I have received an email warning that Progesterex is being used by 
criminals in combination with Rohypnol (the date rape drug) to sterilise 
victims.  Apparently the drug is easily availble through vetinerians.  Can 
you confirm that such a drug exists and that it causes permanent 
sterilisation in women?

Thank you
