Male Birth Control Pill Soon A Reality
Male birth control pill soon a reality
Implants, patches and creams also on the way

Forty-year-old Scott Hardin says he’s glad that men may soon have a new choice when it comes to birth control. But, he adds, he would not even consider taking a male hormonal contraceptive. Hardin is like many men who are pleased to hear they may have a new option but are wary of taking any type of hormones.
“I would rather rely on a solution that doesn’t involving medicating myself and the problems women have had with hormone therapy doesn’t make me anxious to want to sign on to taking a hormone-type therapy,” says Hardin, who is single and a college administrator.
For the first time, a safe, effective and reversible hormonal male contraceptive appears to be within reach. Several formulations are expected to become commercially available within the near future. Men may soon have the options of a daily pill to be taken orally, a patch or gel to be applied to the skin, an injection given every three months or an implant placed under the skin every 12 months, according to Seattle researchers.
“It largely depends on how funding continues. The technology is there. We know how it would work,” says Dr. Andrea Coviello, who is helping to test several male contraceptives at the Population Center for Research in Reproduction at the University of Washington in Seattle.
Coviello and her colleagues have found that a male contraceptive that releases testosterone over three months is potentially a safe and practical method of contraception. The Seattle researchers have been testing a sustained-released, testosterone micro-capsule, which consists of a thick liquid administered by injection under the skin.
“I never had any real noticeable side effects. I didn’t notice any mood changes. I may have put on a little weight,” says Larry Setlow, a 39-year-old computer programmer with a small software company in Seattle. He has taken part in three male hormonal contraceptive clinical trials at the University of Washington and has received both pills and injections.
“They all worked really well and I was able to look at my lab results and see my sperm count drop to zero,” says Setlow.

So if your sperm count drops to 0, does that mean your drive does as well? I can't imagine one would be as aggressive and horny as usually...

I can't see me taking anything that might fuck up my sex drive or cause some dumb shit side effect in the future. Nope, not a candidate...
And if the question is posed to me if I think it's alright for a woman to do that to herself - Yes! Because just like having kids, we flipped a coin and ya'll lost!

), "screw" or "do the nasty." Actually, she often says, "Put it in, now!" during foreplay...

And darksom, I know, is on my side if I say that doing things properly, you don't need a full 20 mins to warm a girl up. 10 mins of prep, 10-15 of oral and 10-15 of coitus is plenty if you know what you are doing. 30-35 minutes, get in, get out, put the clothes in the dryer.
Note: the times I mention obviously depend on circumstance...on a Caribbean cruise with nothing to do all day and night...sure, go it slow with plenty of pre-foreplay and foreplay and all the extras. On occasion, 45 mins+ of longstroking is great, but not all the tme. Not everyone can fit in five or six intricate sessions of 4-5 hours every week. Is nice to be able to get the job done timely.
