Die erste hormonfreie männliche Antibabypabation löscht einen weiteren Meilenstein – bei männlichen Mäusen verursachte das Medikament Unfruchtbarkeit und war zu 99% wirksam bei der Verhinderung von Schwangerschaften innerhalb von vier Wochen nach dem Einsatz. Bei männlichen nichtmenschlichen Primaten senkte das Arzneimittel die Spermienzahlen innerhalb von zwei Wochen nach dem Start des Arzneimittels.

First hormone-free male birth control pill clears another milestone
While the FDA has approved over 20 different categories of contraceptives, only two are available for men to prevent pregnancy in their partners — condoms and vasectomies. 25% of women who use contraception use an oral birth control pill, but there are no equivalent methods currently available for men.
Research from the University of Minnesota College of Pharmacy, published in Communications Medicine, laid the groundwork for the first hormone-free male birth control pill to enter clinical trials.
The new drug, called YCT-529, is a first-in-class, hormone-free and orally administered male contraceptive. Developed in collaboration with Columbia University in New York and YourChoice Therapeutics, YCT-529 works as a contraceptive by stopping the production of sperm.
The research found:
– In male mice, the drug caused infertility and was 99% effective in preventing pregnancies within four weeks of use.
– In male non-human primates, the drug lowered sperm counts within two weeks of starting the drug.
– Both mice and non-human primates fully regained fertility after stopping the drug. Mice regained fertility within six weeks, and non-human primates fully recovered their sperm count in 10-15 weeks.
– No side effects from the drug were detected in either group.
they already have this, it’s called HRT. you can inject estrogen without any anti-androgens and be infertile within 4 weeks 🙂
why would you want to be infertile?
downvote me/ban me from this machine
Hormone free? Yeah that’s bullshit.
Also what did it do to test levels while on it?
If I read my administrations right, if this comes to market soon, then 1) only the wealthy will be able to afford it, or 2) it will outlawed altogether. Can’t have those beneath the one percent NOT providing a steady flow of slave labor!
Personally I would never take a drug that stopped one of my bodies natural function, it just doesn’t sit right with me at all. Messing around with how your body functions cannot be good for you. I have read many stories about women having awful problems after using the pill, it just seems wrong to stop your body doing what it should be doing. Each to their own but definitely not for me.
