Not saying the pill won't eventually appear but the track record for men contraception hitting the market is not good. It always get cancelled in an endless loop of disapointment.
People serious about sharing the load or protecting women from the aide effect of birth control should look up vasectomy or thermal contraception. It works.
I've been on thermal contraception for 6months myself and my sperm production bas completely stoped with no side effects. Highly recommend.
Should be noted vasectomies aren't reliably reversible after a certain point, but if you know you don't want kids, by all means. I'd rather my partner take that leap than me have to have more invasive surgery
Yeah my bad for puting both in the same bag i totally agree. I meant to say that thermal contraception is a good alternative to birth control that men can use, just as vasectomy is a viable alternative to tubal litigation. And both are easier and with less side effect than the woman counterpart.
