Perhaps in the very near future, namely, within the next five years, birth control pills and other hormonal contraceptives for men will finally be invented.. As practice has shown, there are a lot of people who want to use contraceptives among men.. And these are not at all exhausted by fatherhood with many children, as the Internet publication for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old Pannochka reports.. net Men had no choice Men have always been limited in their choice of contraception. They were content only with condoms, and often they were not content with anything at all, shifting the responsibility for pregnancy entirely to the woman.. No, of course, desperate fathers of many children happened to resort to surgical sterilization, and especially cautious men even preferred abstinence, but such men, according to general estimates, are from 5 to 7%. The rest, healthy and sexually active men, had practically nothing to choose from..

If scientists finally manage to create male hormonal pills, injections and subcutaneous implants, then the picture may change radically..

What are the pluses?

The advantages of these funds include their reliability, safety, efficiency, reversibility.. Especially valuable for a man is the opportunity to control the moment of conception himself, which means to be sure of the consequences of sexual contact..

It is assumed that these contraceptives will act on the same principle as female. Only females contain hormones that prevent egg production, while males contain hormones that stop sperm production.. Consumers will be provided with tablets, patches, gels, creams, injections and implants that are annually implanted under the skin.. It is injections and implants that have the greatest chances of appearing as soon as possible, and all other forms may appear after them.. Scientists are sure that this method will be completely safe for men - after stopping the use, the ability to conceive in a man will be restored within 3-4 months.

Currently, German scientists from the Institute of Reproductive Medicine at the University of Munster have come closest to the release of male hormonal contraceptives.. Their drug is already undergoing clinical trials on volunteers - once every two months they are given an injection that temporarily stops spermatogenesis..

What is deafness?

The gene responsible for infertility was found almost by accident - during the scientific research of American and Iranian doctors who studied hereditary deafness in several Iranian families.. Among these families were two families in which, in addition, men suffered from infertility, and this was not associated with any other disorders..

After a long and painstaking work, scientists isolated the gene responsible for this defect.. It is this gene - Catsper1 - that regulates the activity of sperm movement on the way to the egg at the time of fertilization and, with a lack of a certain protein, simply ceases to perform its functions.. If the new drug really acts only on the Catsper1 gene, without affecting other body systems, this will mean a real breakthrough in andrology..

Who invented condoms?

Different nations in different eras " But the real development of the condom was in England at the court of Charles II, having received its real name " The first condoms (condoms - from the Latin praeservare) made of rubber appeared in the 19th century.. A breakthrough here was the discovery of the rubber vulcanization process by Charles Goodyear (USA) and Thomas Hancock (England).

In 1844, Goodyear patented the invention, after which rubber condoms became a mass product..

Everyone chooses for themselves It would seem that modern methods of contraception today - at least a dime a dozen. But here's the problem - all of them (except for condoms and surgical sterilization) concern women. Voluntary surgical sterilization is, of course, a highly effective, but... irreversible method of contraception, which often frightens both men and women. The emergence of male contraceptives has every chance of becoming an excellent addition to the list of highly effective means of preventing unwanted pregnancy..

But won’t the appearance of now male contraceptives become the last limit, beyond which we will completely “regulate”, and therefore decrease in numbers?
