There are several drugs currently available that can do this - Depo Provera and Depo Lupron are the two I know about. Depo Lupron has severe side effects that sometimes last for years after the drug has been discontinued. Both have been used on sex offenders to control their sex drives. At current levels of technology, this is a pretty dangerous thing to do, as testosterone is essential to health.

You've got to love any group of people where the younger ones are
considering chemical castration while the older ones are taking Viagra. I
found the discussion on lowering sex drive particular interesting - while
it's not something I'm considering, it is very extropian, and is to be
saluted. This kind of diversity of discussion is a sign of a healthy forum.
Take it out there, transhumanism!
