Women have been using the female contraceptive pill for over sixty years, and many other options have followed. Yet, after decades of research, there is still no male version of a birth control pill.
Male options for contraception are limited to the condom, vasectomy or withdrawal. However, clinical trials are underway around the world testing new innovations in male contraception. New options may be less than a decade away but, when they arrive, will people want to take them? In this edition of the Inquiry Sandra Kanthal asks: Are we are ready for the new male contraceptives?
