Using literature review methods, this study tracks legal materials through a logical process of deduction based on a believed and self-proof normative premise. According to the study's findings, chemical castration is part of the government's strategy to combat sexual assault against children, as mandated by Law 17 of 2016. The use of chemical castration as a means of execution in Indonesia is still controversial, but it has been determined that this measure is necessary to both deter criminals and ensure victims receive justice.

Therefore.  To carry out chemical castration procedures in the future, standards and protocols will be required
