The recent findings are a major research milestone and one step closer to FDA approval.

More than 60 years after a birth control pill was developed for women, there is still no similar federally approved drug for men. But promising results from a new gel for men might finally change that. Early results show it blocks sperm production after two to three months of daily use. William Brangham discussed more with Dr. Brian Nguyen. PBS NewsHour is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders

A male contraceptive gel shows promising results in a clinical trial, but would you trust a man to remember his contraception? Kieran is joined by Helena Tubridy, Fertility Coach and Ali Ryan, founder of Goss.ie, to discuss.

Women still take most of the responsibility for contraception, but a long anticipated "male pill" could soon become a reality. Several non-hormonal male contraceptive pills that work by slowing sperm are under development, with one entering human trials. Head of the Reproductive Medicine Group at the University of Dundee Professor Chris Barratt has dedicated his career to understanding male infertility, human spermatozoa and sperm-egg interaction. He joins us to explain how these new pills work and why it's taken so long to get to this point.

Despite research into a male contraceptive pill starting around the same time as its female counterpart, no product has ever made it to market. But that could soon change, with a new non-hormonal male pill entering human trials in the UK late last year. Ian Sample speaks to bioethicist Prof Lisa Campo-Engelstein of the University of Texas and Prof Chris Barratt from the University of Dundee about why male contraceptives have been so difficult to develop, and what kind of options are in the pipeline.

The introduction of the contraceptive pill in the 1960s was one of the most significant events in the history of human society. It still left the burden of birth control largely on women.Now, however, things are changing. The demand for male contraceptives is on the rise. Last week, in a major breakthrough, the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) finished clinical trials for the world's first injectable male contraceptive. The trial proved that it is safe and highly effective without any serious side effects.But why have big pharmaceutical companies not paid enough attention to the research on male contraceptives for all these years?Tune in.Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India's first subscriber-only business news platform.

Reproductive science has come a long way in recent years, but there's still plenty we don't understand - particularly around male fertility. The reliability and availability of data in this field has become more of a concern in light of a study published this year, suggesting that sperm counts worldwide have dropped 62% in the past 50 years. As yet there is no clear answer as to why that is. Professor Chris Barratt is one of the scientists working to change that. He's the Head of Reproductive Medicine at Ninewells Hospital and the University of Dundee Medical School, and has dedicated his career to better understanding male infertility; driving breakthroughs in how to study sperm dysfunctions – and most recently spearheading advances in developing a male contraceptive pill. Chris talks to Professor Jim Al-Khalili about his academic struggles as a youngster, the lecture that changed his life, his research into 'head-banging sperm' and why he believes a new male contraceptive could be a game-changer. Produced by Lucy Taylor.

A lively conversation with Allison, who works with women who are dating after getting out of a long-term relationship. Allison is also an author. Her book, "Find Love Again: Learn how to Date Like A Goddess," penned under the name Allison Jayne, seeks to help women navigate the dating, relationships and sex. According to Allison, essentially no guys offer to use a condom when having sex with a new conquest for the first time. This led Keith to offer what I consider some pretty solid advice for men to turn this to their advantage. Allison also has a healthy sex drive, and she helped us understand the differences between clitoral and internal orgasms. She described how entering the dating pool enabled her to explore her sexuality in a way that wasn't really possible while married. For more information about Allison, you can check out her website, which also contains links to her book: https://ymmv.me/115/allison Twitter: @ymmvpod Facebook: ymmvpod Email: ymmvpod@gmail.com

Scientists in the US have been working on developing a male contraceptive pill and new research means we could be a step closer to having it available for use. After testing it on mice, the pill has been shown to switch off the enzyme that the sperm needs to reach the egg. There is still a way to go before it is available for men, but is this something they want to use and would women trust men to take it?  In this episode, we speak to Lonny Levin and Jochen Buck from Weill Cornell's graduate school of medical science, about how they're helping develop this pill.

Have you ever wondered why there's a female contraceptive pill but not a male one? New research might be one step closer to making it happen. A team of scientists are working on an ‘on demand' pill that could make men temporarily infertile. So could this soon be widely available? And why has this taken so long to happen? We'll let you know in the deep dive. You can fill out the survey here.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

New research has found that a single dose temporary male contraceptive is showing success in mice. By temporarily immobilizing mice sperm it was found to be 100 percent effective in preventing pregnancy after two hours and 91 percent affective after the first three. After 24 hours, the mice were returning to normal fertility levels without any negative effects. Study lead Dr. Melanie Balbach joined Mike Hosking.

Kevin Shane with Male Contraceptive Initiative sheds light on new groundbreaking discoveries and research in male birth control. MCI's mission is body autonomy for everyone, and one way to get closer to that goal is more options (and a hell of a lot of funding) Tom became curious about male birth control after his son suggested he get a vasectomy before he goes to college. See why that's incredibly stupid! Dejahzh also wants to know if male birth control will taste good. Would you take male birth control? Even if it was BBQ flavored? Hey! If you read this far just remember..NOBODY featured in this episode is a doctor! :) Chill OUT!

A sperm-stopping gel injected into the tubes that transport it around the body could be a game-changer when it comes to a male contraceptive. In a world first, the procedure dubbed the 'reversable vasectomy', is being trialled by researchers at the Epworth Freemasons Hospital in Melbourne. Twenty-five men, who have the gel injection, will be tracked over three years to see how effective the procedure is. The lead investigator urologist is Professor Nathan Lawrentschuk. He talks to Lisa Owen.

It's being called medicine's Me Too moment. Two female doctors have launched an online campaign gathering testimony about sexual harassment and a culture of sexism in the world of health care. Dr Becky Cox and Dr Chelcie Jewitt join Krupa to explain why they launched Surviving in Scrubs. Last week we looked at radical solutions to the ageing population and slowing birth rate, including a tax on the childfree. One country which has taken a unique approach is Hungary which introduced tax breaks and loans to encourage women to have more children in 2019. The BBC's Nick Thorpe joins Krupa to discuss how successful the policy has been. Back in 1972, the very first England Women's Football Team beat Scotland in their first international victory, but unlike the men's team the Lionesses were not awarded official caps. Pressure has been mounting for the Football Association to recognise the 1972 team with caps. The reserve goalkeeper, Sue Wyhatt, joins us as the FA announce they will award the caps. The male contraceptive pill has been talked about for decades but so far has never got past the research stages. There is a current clinical trial though that is already yielding good results – however it's not a pill, it's a gel. It's also had positive feedback from the couples who tried it. Krupa is joined by Dr Diana Blithe, who leads the Contraceptive Development Program at the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development in the US. The UK premiere of Little Women opens at Opera Holland Park later this week. The award winning director Ella Marchment joins Krupa Padhy, along with Charlotte Padham who makes her professional debut as Jo. Presenter: Krupa Padhy Producer: Emma Pearce

This week: micro plastics found in human blood, success with the male contraceptive pill, a new timeline of our universe's history, and how stoicism could have helped Will Smith!MICRO-PLASTICS IN BLOODMicroplastics have been found on the summit of Mount Everest, in the deepest corners of the ocean, and now, close to home in HUMAN BLOOD!Sorry to break it to you, but you probably have some micro plastics floating around your body right now. A recent study conducted in Amsterdam analysed the blood from 22 healthy donors and found micro plastics in 17 of them!Half of them contained PET plastic, commonly used in drink bottles, while a third contained polystyrene. A quarter of the blood samples contained polyethylene, which is used to make plastic bags.Once the plastic gets into our body, through eating, drinking or breathing, it can actually lodge in our organs and cause considerable harm.Easy steps to avoid this include not heating up food in plastic containers, using a water filter, cutting out disposable takeaway cups, and limiting seafood consumption. You'd be helping the environment too, so it's a no brainer!MALE CONTRACEPTIVE PILLWatch out wannabe baby daddies!A male contraceptive pill was recently shown to be 99% effective in preventing pregnancy... In mice.If you've ever had pet mice, you'll know that those guys love to fuck, so this is quite a feat.Unlike the female contraceptive pill that messes with hormones, often resulting in side effects such as depression and weight gain, this new pill for men targets retinoid acid protein receptors.Retinoic acid, a type of vitamin A, is needed to create sperm. So the scientists were able to tinker with this protein to result in lower sperm counts with no observable side effects.Once the male mice were taken off the drug, they could get back to baby making within 4 to 6 weeks.Human trials are set to begin at the end of the year, but the question is, would women trust men to be diligent enough to take it everyday?It's a big responsibility to be placed in a man's…. Hands? Mouth?[funny]UPDATING OUR UNIVERSE'S TIMELINEWe now have more accurate birthdays for many of the stars in our Milky Way!Astronomers studied almost 250,000 subgiants- those are stars that are growing larger and cooler after using up the hydrogen fuel at their centres.And a bit like how you can tell how old someone is judging by whether they know who this guy is [PAUSE] you can tell how old these stars are by testing their temperature and brightness.They discovered that the Milky Way's thick, girthy disk got its start about 13 billion years ago, and kept forming stars until about 8 billion years ago when it ran out of gas.They hope that the James Webb telescope might be able to spot similar disks in galaxies 13 billion light-years away, which may be baby pics of our Milky Way.If you're a space nerd, come and chat with Professor Brian Greene, a physicist who has written many books on the fascinating history of our universe.We'll be touring him this June at shows across Australia and New Zealand, and at our Virtual Event- tickets are at the link in our bio.SECULAR NATIONS ARE THE HAPPIESTWhat happens when a nation loses its faith? Some people will tell you that the country will become a disaster, but the latest World Happiness Report shows otherwise.For the fifth year in a row, Finland tops out as the happiest country, followed by Denmark, Iceland, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Sweden, Norway, Israel, and New Zealand.Dammit New Zealand! You may have a higher happiness rate, but WE have a higher crime rate, so, yeah. Take that.What do these countries have in common? Apart from all being fucking cold, except for Israel, they are all very secular… yet again, except Israel.So, are secular countries happier because of the lack of religion? Or is is that as a country progresses, it becomes less religious? Let us know what you think in the comments.WILL SMITH NEEDS STOICISMHas anyone checked on Will Smith?By now you've probably seen that wild footage from the Oscars of Will Smith clocking Chris Rock in the face.Maybe if you're the ultimate philosopher, living in Plato's cave, or Diogenes' barrel, you haven't seen the footage, but then again, you probably wouldn't be watching this video either.The incident got us thinking- our man Will could use a healthy dose of stoicism.What is stoicism? It's the practical philosophy that teaches us to not act on every impulse we have, as it usually causes more suffering.Our Think Inc. Academy course ‘How to be a Stoic' starts on the 3rd of May, and in it you'll learn techniques to help you control your negative emotions with grace and rationality, unlike the Fresh Prince.Stoicism is a great secular philosophy that can be used to improve both your personal and work life.Serious about becoming Stoic?

Although the male contraceptive pill has not been fully developed, the discussion of whether men should take it is a very good one. Some men are for it whilst other men are against it. Join me, @bigscoop_ @corporate_steve @mrj_fraser95 in this weeks IG LIVE discussion as we get to the bottom of this question.

Where is it? Why isnt it out yet? What's the hold up? These are some of the questions Leo and Rumb pose in this week's episode on why Women are suffering with multiple symptoms caused by contraceptive options but men havent got a pill of their own? It's mind booggling when you think about it, but even more disturbing why family planning has been left as a woman's responsibility and men take very little part in considering what is happening to their partner's body and mental well being. Listen in to this week's controversial but much needed conversation on contraception with loads of TMI and stories of experiences with some contraceptive methods. Do you have a tory to share?

This episode is all about THE BOYS. Here at The Lowdown we spend a lot of time talking to women and experts about The Pill, the coil and the injection. But this time we wanted to deep dive into a topic so many people ask us about - male contraception. This episode looks at who's making them, how methods like the Male Contraceptive gel work, and why it's taken so long to get us to this point. Alice talks to Dr John Renolds-Wright - a Clinical Research Fellow who is currently conducting trials on the male contraceptive gel at the University of Edinburgh. We also hear from Logan Nickels and Kevin Shane from The Male Contraceptive Initiative - which is a non-profit based in North Carolina, focussed on moving male contraception forward.

Contraceptive options for men have so far relied on vasectomies and condoms but now we could be on the brink of a male contraceptive pill and gel. Though birth control pills have been available to women for nearly 60 years, there’s nothing equivalent on the pharmacy shelves for men. A team of scientists announced that […] The post Male contraceptive gel and birth control Episode 64 appeared first on Coffee and A Chitchat Podcast.

The unintended pregnancy rate in the United States is approximately 45% despite of variety of contraceptive options available to women.  Today, male condoms and withdrawal are the only reversible contraceptive methods available to men with typical failure rates between 10% and 20%.  But what about a male contraceptive pill?  Studies indicate that more than half of men would be interested in using a reversible method if it was available.  And many women would be willing to rely on their partner to use such a contraceptive.  Unplanned pregnancy rates could improve if both partners use a contraceptive method or if men had more options to control their own fertility. The January 2019 issue of Clinical Chemistry is devoted to topics of men’s health.  And in that issue, an article examined developments in male contraceptives with an update on both novel hormonal and non-hormonal methods.

Dr Shingai told us about a potential male contraceptive to be made available soon. We then opened the lines for listeners to call in with their sexual health questions.

A dicey question: Are sexually active heterosexual men and their partners satisfied with a dice roll[or a crap shoot] when it comes to unplanned parenthood? No! But the annual pregnancy rate for couples using a condom as primary birth control is 18% [worse than 1 in 6]. The solution? Scientists around the globe are ready to create an effective male contraceptive – but they need funding. GUESTS Aaron Hamlin, M.P.H., Esq., is a Co-Founder and the Executive Director of The Male Contraception Initiative (MCI), a nonprofit organization focused on giving men contraceptive options. MCI works with researchers worldwide. Beverly Tucker, M.P.H., MCI Secretary and Director, attended the recent International Conference on Family Planning in Indonesia on behalf of MCI. She worked with Airlangga University researchers developing the male contraceptive Gendarussa, now in Phase II human trials and the furthest along of any male contraceptive to date.
