After being convicted, his sentencing was largely left up to him. Turing could choose between imprisonment or probation, which was conditional upon his reception of hormone treatments designed to reduce libido. He opted for the hormone treatments, subjecting himself to a year of injections of silboestrol. This treatment rendered Turing impotent and caused gynecomastia, the enlargement of the breast tissue in males.

In addition to these results from his indecency charge, Turing also lost his security clearance and was forbidden from doing more work on codes and from talking about his work.

Why did Alan turing kill himself?

Oh, dude, Alan Turing, the brilliant mind behind cracking the Enigma code during World War II, sadly took his own life in 1954. The official cause was cyanide poisoning, but it's believed he did it because of the hormone treatment he was forced to undergo as punishment for being gay. So, yeah, it's a mix of tragic history and society being a real buzzkill.
