We are used to the fact that the only contraceptive used by men is a condom . In fact, there is a whole pharmaceutical industry of male contraception, moreover, scientists are actively working to transfer the burden of protection from the female shoulders to the male ones.
Without improvised means
The interrupted act and the protracted act are the most unreliable methods of male contraception, at the same time, they do not require any improvised means. Statistics show that every third sexual act with the use of these methods is dangerous, that is, leads to conception. The reason is that sperm is released not only during orgasm, but also at the beginning of sexual intercourse with lubrication. In addition, both partners, with the long use of this method, begin to suffer from sexual disorders, and men face impotence.
Classics of the genre
The most popular male contraceptive is a condom. Invented in the 16th century, today it is made of the finest and high-strength latex, but at times, alas, it tears at the most inopportune moment, besides, a strong half of humanity should have been more scrupulous about the rules of exploitation of this method of male contraception.
Surgery
Vasectomy is a surgical intervention that is done to prevent sperm from coming out. A cut is made on the vas deferens, and a month later the man becomes barren for the rest of his life. Modern medicine has also created a reverse vasectomy, thanks to which, a man can again become a father, having gone through an operation to stitch the previously cut vas deferens.
Hormonal tablets
Yes, no matter how ridiculous it may sound, hormonal remedies have ceased to be the lot of women alone. Male hormonal contraception is based on the introduction of two hormones to men - female estrogen and male testosterone.
A combined implant - developed in Melbourne, contains the two above-mentioned hormones that enter the blood of men alternately for 3 to 4 months. The action lasts a year, after which the sexual function is restored.
In male contraception, there are hormone pills. They were developed in Edinburgh. Men take in small doses of desogestrel - progesterone of the third generation, and every three months they are implanted with testosterone capsules.
