The ADAM contraceptive is a hydrogel injected into the male sperm ducts to block the passage of sperm, and it seems to still be effective two years into the first human clinical trial.
Agreed! While I’ve never wanted children, I had to wait a considerable time before a doctor would perform a vasectomy on me. I think that there should be continued research into temporary male birth control for those who may want children. There have been several promising non-hormonal methods that I would like to either see approved or have wider adoption. I also believe that we need continued education on condom use, as STIs disproportionately affect women.

That would be the dream. And condoms are underrated.
I also hope the chance of getting baby trapped goes down a little bit too. Won’t stop birth control sabotage, but it would still help.
