What is the best method of contraception for men?

In today's era, everyone attaches great importance to their work and career.

This requires everyone to use contraception in a timely manner. There are many contraceptive measures. Women can take birth control pills or get injections, and men can also use some measures to prevent pregnancy. So, what is the best method of male contraception?

What are the male contraceptive methods?

1. Use condoms

Condoms are a male contraceptive tool that is easy to use and worth promoting. The advantage of condoms as a contraceptive is that they have no side effects on both parties and are easy to use, but they can affect men’s feelings and their contraceptive rate is not 100%. According to statistics, if condoms are used correctly, the failure rate is only 1.5 to 4.2%. However, in actual use, the failure rate of condoms is as high as 10 to 15%. The main reason is that people fail to pay attention to some minor details when using condoms. If used correctly, the contraceptive rate is still very high.

2 Male oral contraceptives

Male oral contraceptives are oral tablets specifically for men. They work by inhibiting sperm production and reducing the number of sperm, resulting in few or even no sperm and thus making conception impossible. Cottonpol is the representative of oral male contraceptive drugs and the only drug that has ever been used clinically. Because this chemical extracted from ordinary cotton seeds has a strong inhibitory effect on sperm production.

3. Vasectomy

Male sterilization is a permanent form of birth control. The principle of contraception is to cut off the vas deferens that transports sperm from the testicles to the penis, preventing the sperm from entering the semen and being excreted from the body. After a man undergoes a sterilization operation, it does not immediately produce permanent contraceptive effects, so other reliable contraceptive measures must be used after the operation. Contraceptive measures can only be abandoned after two sperm tests have proven that there are no sperm at all.
