Update on Hormonal BC for Men

I talked about this before.

From the BBC:

While female treatments suppress ovulation, sperm production can be prevented by giving the male hormones androgen and progestagen.

These can either lead to no sperm being produced in semen, or very low sperm counts too low to lead to conception - fewer than three million sperm per millilitre compared to a fertile level of 20 million.

and then:

He said research carried out by his team, looking at couples in Edinburgh, Africa and Asia, had found the majority of men would use hormonal contraception - and the majority of women would trust their partners to do so.

However, far fewer women said they would trust men in general to use the contraceptive.

Toni Belfield, of the Family Planning Association, said: "It's important that research continues to provide a range of options for both men and women in order that good confident choices can be made.
