Men on the pill: a new contraception in action

Australian scientists have developed a pill for men with a temporary effect of vasectomy. The drug inhibits the movement of sperm, thus eliminating the chance of fertilization, without resorting to surgery.

  Deferentectomy   - The most radical and effective method of contraception for men resorted to by men, as a rule, many children have already become fathers. In their plans exactly the birth of new children is not included, but the wife does not want to drink contraceptives, and men themselves to use condoms. Therefore, surgery is performed vasectomy   - Dressing, or delete parts of the vas deferens.

vasectomy

This procedure is a cavity, and its effect is often irreversible, which stops it from many of men.

Attempts to create a tablet before proved unsuccessful, as the science of medicine attempted to influence the male hormones, or to make the sperm ineffective.

This traditional fears men associated with conventional vasectomy (such as violation of libido or decrease of masculinity), completely deprived of reason. A woman can light-heartedly renounce oral contraceptives increase the risk of heart attacks, strokes and blood clots.
