GLAND AT BASE
OF BRAIN
CHILDLESS wives may now hope to have children. This remarkable claim is made by Dr. Aschheim, a Berlin scientist, whose discovery is now being in- vestigated in Great Britain.
Sterility is often due to the lack of a substance prolam pro- duced by a small gland at the base of the brain.
This substance, it is now claimed, can be obtained from the blood of an expectant mother and can be injected into a sterile woman or man to enable natural parenthood to eventuate,
Dr. John Hammond, M.A., D.Sc., F.R.S. of tile School of! Agriculture, Cambridge, told n correspondent that he has been applying the principles of Dr. Aschheim's discovery in his work in animal genetics,
Prolam has no hereditary or personal characteristics, and children born after its use will inherit all the characteristics of their parents, it is emphasised, and not from the woman from whose blood the prolam was obtained.
