Chemical castration upon child sex abusers
Chemical castration is an ideal punishment for sex offenders. When Depo-Provera is administerd, recidivism rates fall to 5%. Their sexual fantasies are lessened as a result of the reduction of testosterone levels. Although men administered this drug are capable of having sexual intercourse, many people argue that chemical castration is cruel and unusual punishment. This argument is countered by the fact that sex offenders are required to get injections only once a month. What is "cruel and unusual" is allowing sex offenders to attack innocent women and children. This effective therapy will protect future victims. It is an "offender friendly" way of reducing sexual violence.

Pros:
1. The threat of chemical castration may deter people from committing sex crimes in the first place 
2. Paedophilia is a terrible crime. If sex offenders are treated, there is less chance that they will revert to abusing children after they are released from prison. For instance, the administration of libido-lowering drugs has been shown to cut reoffending rates from 40 per cent to five per cent.
3. Unlike surgical castration, chemical castration is a humane procedure. It is already used as a treatment for prostate cancer.
4. Most important that it will protect children from future harm
