Topic: Male birth control - Sydney breakthrough?
Phooks

A NEW Australian-developed contraceptive jab for men, taken four times a year, has been proven to be just as effective as birth-control pills for women.

Sydney researchers found the hormonal injection is a quick and reliable method of contraception for up to 95 per cent of males.

Until now, the only effective non-barrier contraceptive for men was a vasectomy.



Made up of a combination of the hormones androgen and progestin - mostly testosterone - it needs to be administered every two to three months. The new jab works by suppressing sperm output but does not have a permanent effect.


Clicky

Yes, I know, news.com rage, but I cbf finding another source right now. It seems pretty legit.

Yeh, but as if get needles regularly. Chicks should all get implanon FTW. But don't forget, none of these will stop you from getting the AIDS.

About freakin' time.

I can't believe it has taken this long. It's not right for girls to put that stuff in their bodies all the time.

Implanon is great, except when it makes her bleed for 20 days straight, and act more irrational than normal.

could be interesting.

Males are possibly better equipped to deal with slight changes to their hormones than women. The pill has well documented behavioral side affects in many women, some obviously more severe than others. Men aren't as prone to big mood swings as women, so its possible that the side effects of this new treatment would be close to zero. Not saying ill be first to volunteer, but if it gets off the ground, could be something to explore. A needle every 3 or 4 months wont kill you sheesh.

Yeah - Imolanon is not the answer. Given that we get to carry something for 9 months - then push something the size of a watermelon out something the size of a grape - maybe you could all take one for the team. Look at your alternative - *snip snip*

yeah boys
girls do have to put up with extra stuff when the time comes around. I think that it would be nice for the boy to have to deal with the preventative stuff and take some of the load off the girls.

the reprecussions for contraception failure, in casual sex situations, are overriding on the women. that's why male pills don't work.

sure that sleaze bag you f***ed last night said he was on the male-pill, but if it turned out he lied he is not likely to consider it his problem.

just cum on her face - it keeps everyone happy.

because the new drug is mostly testostarone.. You increase the levels of testostarone in a guy, and experience very little side effects. Increased muscle growth, higher sex drive, (body)hair growth might increase a bit.. POSSIBLY a little bit more agression, but i doubt its anything that would be incontrollable. will have to wait and see ^_^

wrong

I've seen some down to earth guys changed by drugs, from pot to coke or anything in between
men have the same mood swings as women, its just less noticable because we expect women to be bitchy moany whores

take any guy who drinks coffee every day and tell him he cant have it anymore, he'd probably just go 'meh'
but 2 or 3 days from then he'd be having a pretty s*** morning and he will be more irritable etc

Wait to see what the side effects are.

eg. A very rare side effect of the pill for chicks is blood clots .. which can kill.

It's great that they've developed this, but I think girls would be stupid to rely on guys telling them they've been having the shots done. Ultimately, if the contraceptive fails (or isn't there) it's the girl who's going to end up s*** creek so I think it should ultimately remain our responsibility to provide our own contraceptive. Unless I was actually dating the guy I would never trust that he was the injections done when you've got nothing but his word. At least with something like implanon you can actually see the rod inside their arm.

errm.... tbh that shouldn't be a concern.. if your not in a relationship with the person, i'd hope you were using dom's anyway. bl if you get AIDS otherwise.

Well, yea of course, but I was more thinking along the lines of people having random one night stands etc where they don't really seem to think things through properly. And even using condoms I'd still prefer there to be a second method of contraception.

plenty of women expect men to believe they're taking the pill every day?
men are less likely in my opinion to lie about it, it's *more often than not* (not saying always) the girl that is clingy and gets knocked up on purpose whilst telling her partner shes on the pill

Yea, I can see what you're saying, what I mean is, girls would be stupid to rely on a male contraceptive, at the end of the day they're the ones who risk getting pregnant, it should be their responsibility to protect themselves/their body etc. Not saying that men are necessarily going to do the dirty on them or whatever, but it's their body, and they should be responsible for it.

If you werent in a relationship - you would be (or at least should be) using other/multiple forms of contraception anyway. In the case of a relationship its going to be either one or the other taking responsibility for the contraception - I dont see why it couldnt be the guy.

I havent taken the pill in years because of the side effects - I get extremely moody and depressed (nobody needs that, Im moody enough as it is ;)), I do put on weight, especially in the...ergm...chest area (also dont need that), and there are other undesired side effects Im not going to get into on here.

All and all I think its time we try an alternative!

Also - perhaps we could substitute grape with lemon/lime? Tasty treat.

theres food for thought, wouldn't it be funny if it made your wang bigger
the only problem there is if you've got a small wang to start with, you probably wont need the injections

Yeah, GP I can definitely see why you would rather an alternative for the pill, I have definitely suffered side effects for various forms of the pill. I seem to do okay on Estelle though.
