for decades women have had a variety of
birth control options but men have had
very few until now or soon at least
maybe I’ve assumed you’re wearing a
patch or a dental dam or one of those
butterfly house um things like that it’s
like saran wrap
it’s disgusting okay but I thought you
had one welcome to watchmojo.com it
we’re counting down the most interesting
facts about male birth control something
once perceived as purely fantasy but
that fantasy is now slowly coming upon
us Hey phrasing number five it’s a lot
easier to stop one egg than millions of
sperm one pill every day for three weeks
it will stop ovulation 100% women have
been taking the pill since 1960 but why
is science done nothing new to disable
our little swimmers sure there are
annoyingly temporary condoms frightening
ly permanent vasectomies and some dicey
steroidal options but that’s about it
well aside from the general difficulties
in developing safe and effective
pharmaceuticals one physiological
difference in particular poses a big
problem the main difference between the
two is the number of reproductive cells
that a pill would need to stop it’s a
lot easier to stop one egg a month than
it is to stop the 1,500 sperm that are
created every second number four the
world could benefit from a little more
birth control even though right now I’m
still a size two I won’t be for long
because I’m pregnant
birth control methods have been around
for decades and yet unplanned
pregnancies still abound particularly in
the United States according to the most
recent national survey of family growth
and other data literally half of all
pregnancies in the US are unintended
equating to over 3 million baby bumps
per year for the amazing home that rate
may seem alarmingly high and in some
states the rates are actually
significantly higher but according to
some estimates 50% is just about the
average for the entire developed world
it’s boom
number three birth control pills for men
are in development there are at least
three new oral forms of male
contraception each with a different
approach to the thousand plus sperm per
second problem the first is derived from
an Indonesian plant and messes up one
enzyme found in the sperm head another
interferes with the body’s ability to
use vitamin A to create a specific
chemical AR AR that is essential for
sperm production presumably it would
have to be taken on a regular basis to
keep the sperm count down the third aims
to be fast-acting and lasts 16 to 24
hours far from interfering with vitamin
A it would relax the muscles and glands
involved in ejaculation while not
preventing orgasm for that reason it has
been dubbed the clean sheets pill though
it could probably also be called the
clean gym sock pill number two women
don’t necessarily trust men with taking
the pill every day
I despise men I can trust them so all
those pills they may just amount to
nothing if women aren’t on board with
the idea
a team from Teesside university in
northeast England asks 380 women if they
trusted their significant other with
taking a birth control pill every day
while both genders found the idea of a
male pill intriguing a majority of the
females didn’t trust their partners to
remember an outcome that has led
pharmaceutical companies to look at more
long-lasting solutions such as a monthly
injection or an implant I said I don’t
want down so luckily number one non pill
methods are on the way the population
council delivers ideas that generate
solutions spark change and improve lawns
the international NGO the population
council is currently developing a
contraceptive hormonal implant for men
called mint it would last one year and
be placed under the skin of the upper
arm a daily topical cream is also
currently in development but the one
with the most promise is probably Vasil
gel so it’s just a shot more is just a
shot
it is a polymer that gets injected into
the vas deferens and will either block
filter or destroy the sperm in theory
this method would be permanent but
reversible via another injection that
clears out the polymer now fortunately
and unfortunately it’s being developed
as a non-profit social venture not by
some giant pharmaceutical company which
makes bringing it to market more calm
kated then we have time to explain so
when will it be available well don’t
hold your ball mm-hmm
breath rain room two sexual organs save
the direction so what do you think well
any of these methods ever come to a
pharmacy near you or will they be at the
edge of coming forever hey
phrasing four more thousands every
second top tens and fully reversible top
