I'd love to have effective male contraception. But the previous work on this doesn't make it look like it's the answer: https://www.parsemus.org/humanhealth/ul

  Yeah, those numbers don't look good - 20% motility and 50% of normal count sounds like potential for pregnancy. Maybe reduced, but still there.

  Turns out "take a hot bath" doesn't make anyone any money. It's very common in poor countries such as India. (https://www.dontcookyourballs.com/ https://www.dontcookyourballs.com/)

  DMAU as a pill or injection appears to be very effective. Studies are still ongoing. It’s been studied for a long time, and finally it seems there’s an appetite from men widespread enough to make it feasible commercially. https://endocrinenews.endocrine.org/one-step-closer-is-male-hormonal-contraception-finally-within-reach/ https://endocrinenews.endocrine.org/one-step-closer-is-male-... I’ve done two drug trials with this stuff and it’s pretty cool. It appears to make men totally infertile while they’re on the drug, with a quick recovery once off of it. It might help prevent balding, too.

    That sounds amazing. It will come to late for me, but I wish it had been available when I was younger.
