Male birth control pills

Male birth control pills are medications designed to prevent pregnancy by reducing sperm production or activity. They typically contain hormones like testosterone or other synthetic hormones that signal the testes to temporarily decrease sperm production, similar to how female birth control pills work. The goal is to provide a reversible, effective, and convenient option for male contraception. While research is ongoing, some male pills have shown promise, but they are not yet widely available. They aim to offer men more control over reproductive choices while maintaining hormone balance and minimizing side effects.
