		The sheaths invented by Fallopius and the earl of Condom were actually not intended as contraceptive devices but primarily as means of preventing the users from contracting venereal diseases which was considered as the scourge of libertines.

		This Fallopius It is who dragged the Galen-idol down, Who rent the veil of flesh and forced a way Into the secret fortalice of life”— Yet it was I that bore the brunt of it!
		At first, when Padua wrote: “Master, Fallopius dead, resume again The chair even he could not completely fill, And see what usury age shall take of youth In honours forfeited”—why, just at first, I was quite simply credulously glad To think the old life stood ajar for me, Like a fond woman’s unforgetting heart.

	Cowardice or Caution? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Now it is gravely asserted that Fallopius committed himself to misleading views, views which he knew to be misleading, because he thought that he was thereby serving the interests of the Church.
		The accusation, however, is not that Fallopius made a mistake – as many another man has done – but that he deliberately expressed an opinion which he did not hold and did so from religious motives.
		There is no evidence whatever that Fallopius ever had so much as a suspicion of the real explanation, nor, it may be added, had any other man of science for the century which followed his death.

		They were actually used to prevent the spread of venereal diseases, syphilis in particular Though Fallopius claimed more than a thousand successful trials as proof of his invention's effectiveness, it evidently rubbed users the wrong way.

		In 1550, Fallopius noted the narrow lumen in the temporal bone through which a part of the seventh cranial nerve passes.
		In 1828, Charles Bell made the distinction between the fifth and seventh cranial nerves; he noted that the seventh nerve was involved mainly in the motor function of the face and the fifth nerve was concerned mainly with the sensory perception of the face.
