NEW YORK POST | New Male Birth Control Options Are On The Way
ORIGINALLY POSTED ON: NEW YORK POST
Men may soon have more than condoms and vasectomies in their arsenal when it comes to avoiding an unexpected bundle of joy.
A new generation of male birth control is on the horizon, with researchers working on everything from pills and gels to longer-lasting contraceptives.
And apparently, plenty of guys are eager to give them a shot.
NEXT Life Sciences is looking to bring two new male birth control methods to the market.
A 2024 survey of more than 18,000 men across seven countries found that 61% would consider trying a new male contraceptive within its first year on the market, including 49% of those in the US.
One company looking to capitalize on that interest is NEXT Life Sciences, which is working on two potential options: PausePill, an on-demand drug taken before sex, and Plan A, a reversible implant designed to keep sperm at bay for years.
