Sinawat S 
The overall rate of fertilization in humans has contributed to sustained increases in the
world population and the added urgency of the need to develop new, effective contraceptive

embryonic-maternal communication during early pregnancy with immunological reagents. This
has lead to the principal concept of "contraceptive vaccine" which may become available in the
near future.
