It's not a reliable source.
Neither is the FDA - or manufacturers, usually. But thanks to Long Lance and his earlier post, we have some of the original promo coverage on this crap:

If you’re not a fan of needles, then you may not like the idea of a vaccination against pregnancy or sperm production. Yes, that’s right: vaccines are in the works to help prevent a pregnancy. ..
...For women, a vaccine that would cause an immune system response to hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) was under development for many years. Also known as the pregnancy hormone, hCG is the hormone produced by a fertilized egg. The vaccine worked by producing an immune system response in a woman’s body when hCG was produced thereby causing a woman’s body to attack both the hCG and the embryo, thus preventing a pregnancy from occurring. However, not only was the vaccine rather controversial, it was also not very affective. As a result, it was never put on the market.
And as Long Lance also said earlier: there are plenty of sources, as anyone with a search engine will attest. For example:
