New Male Birth Control Gel Shows Rapid and Promising Results

Clinical trials reveal the gel significantly lowers sperm count within weeks, offering a potential breakthrough in male contraception.

The gel combines testosterone and Nestorone, a synthetic hormone used in female birth control rings.
Participants applied the gel daily to their shoulder blades, achieving effective sperm suppression in an average of eight weeks.
The trial involved 222 men aged 18-50, with 86% reaching the target sperm count for contraception.
Minimal side effects were reported, including mild acne and weight gain, making it a user-friendly option.
Further trials and funding are necessary to bring the gel to market and confirm its long-term effectiveness.
