Immunocontraception is the use of vaccines in order to cause temporary infertility.

Immunocontraception involves the administration of a vaccine that induces an adaptive immune response which causes temporary infertility.

The techniques are anything but new. Contraceptive vaccines have been used in numerous settings. Human experiments abound.

An extensive overview on human research dating back to the 1970s and now (2021) being approved in India can be found on https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Immunocontraception&oldid=1042082027

There is even a peer reviewed journal dedicated solely to the subject of Immunocontraception: The American Journal of Reproductive Immunology.
