Very useful backup for blokes IF it worked without side effects, unfortunately there are women who use pregnancy to try and trap men and they are not above pretending to take the pill, sorry it must have not worked blah blah. This might work occasionally but will more likely result in the bloke coughing up for x years while she makes his life as awkward as possible, that's before we get to the impact on society. Yeah, I know you can stick it in a bag but this would be a good safety net I reckon !

Originally posted by landl View PostIsn't it true that one of the main causes of baldness is a high testosterone level, so wouldn't this injection make you bald as well as infertile? Add to that the fact that you're not being protected from any diseases, the 2% failure rate and the requirement for a monthly injection, and I'm not convinced this is going to take off.
We hope.

Wouldn't this pill make you bald?
Originally posted by Pondlife View PostA male contraceptive jab could be as effective at preventing pregnancies as the female pill or condoms, work shows.
The monthly testosterone injection works by temporarily blocking sperm production and could revolutionise birth control, experts believe.
In trials in China only one man in 100 fathered a child while on the injections, the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism reports.
Six months after stopping the jabs the men's sperm counts returned to normal.
