"The Pill" for men may soon be a reality
Male pill breakthrough
BBC News
Scientists have developed an easy-to-use contraceptive pill and hormone patch for men. A three-month course of the pill used in combination with the hormone patch reduces the number of active sperm to zero.
However, once men stop taking the pill patch their sperm counts return to normal. The success of clinical trials using the method brings an easy-to-take male contraceptive pill one step closer, researchers have said. Family planning specialists said the research was a significant advance.
They said a male pill would offer men more choice and provide a clear alternative to vasectomies.
