Texas A&M researchers have successfully tested a compound on mice that inhibits sperm production and mobility, with no side effects (yet).

We're clearly years away from a pill version for humans, but if a human version were to be successfully developed - with no side effects - would you take it?

Might explain why I never had a kid when I was married even though I tended to rely on pulling out as my form of birth control.

Thank you drugs for saving me!!!!!!!!!!!!

To answer the question, probably. Don't like condoms that much, but really don't like the thought of someone waving her little bastard in my face telling me she needs money for "our" baby. Fuck that shit...

I would have used this in college for sure. That way I know I wouldn't have "forgot" to take a pill or been worried if the condom broke. I had the condom break in college and we decided to get plan b. It wasn't available over the counter back then. It was a weekend and the student health center was closed and the dr at obleness was morally against it so we had to drive 30 miles to a urgent care that was open to get it the next morning. It woulda been a lot easier if I coulda just had a pill to take each day. Btw fuck the dr who wouldn't prescribe it.

Without a doubt - I wouldn't have to worry about whether or not she took her pill.

But no side effects is the key. That is one thing I'd have to wait years to be convinced of no side effects. To me anything that messes with testosterone or sperm production is a roll of the dice. And the pull-out Picasso is part of the fun.

Although it would be hilarious if the reason this pill is actually effective is because it prevents erections.

That's a good point. The "honey, we won't worry about having kids....because the pill made me impotent..." would go down as about as awkward a conversation a person could have with their partner.
