Watch out wannabe baby daddies!
A male contraceptive pill was recently shown to be 99% effective in preventing pregnancy…. In mice.
If you’ve ever had pet mice, you’ll know that those guys love to fuck, so this is quite a feat.Â
Unlike the female contraceptive pill that messes with hormones, often resulting in side effects such as depression and weight gain, this new pill for men targets retinoid acid protein receptors.Â
Retinoic acid, a type of vitamin A, is needed to create sperm. So the scientists were able to tinker with this protein to result in lower sperm counts with no observable side effects.
Once the male mice were taken off the drug, they could get back to baby making within 4 to 6 weeks.
Human trials are set to begin at the end of the year, but the question is, would women trust men to be diligent enough to take it everyday?Â
It’s a big responsibility to be placed in a man’s…. Hands? Mouth?
