BOSTON – Researchers are one step closer to designing a birth control pill for men.
Right now, the contraceptives available specifically for men are condoms, which have a relatively high failure rate, and vasectomies which is a surgical procedure that is difficult to reverse so a reliable, reversible, and easy-to-use option for men is needed.
Now researchers at NYU have performed Phase 1 clinical trials in men on two experimental once-a-day male contraceptive pills which suppress hormones needed to produce sperm.
They found both formulations were both safe and well-tolerated, with no significant side effects.
Now the drugs will be tested further to see if they can effectively suppress sperm production.
