Male Contraceptive Injections

Male Contraceptive Injections

Male contraceptive injections are one of the modern contraception methods for men. Like every method of contraception, male contraceptives too have their own advantages and disadvantages. Read on to know more about the advantages and disadvantages of male contraceptive injections.

A new study has shown promising and extremely satisfactory results in healthy males. This shows that male contraceptive injections have helped fertile men have birth control rights with them. In fact, the results have shown that male contraceptive injections are as effective and acceptable as that for women.
The male contraceptive injection has been designed to alter the hormonal system. It either lowers or completely stops the production of sperm. The most important thing is that the complete process is reversible and so there is no question of risking the fertility. There appears to be almost no side effects as well.

Advantages of Male Contraceptive Injections

Various well known and renowned universities have conducted trials and studies on this subject. They have found that the injections did not have any change in libido, potency, erectness or having orgasm.
The contraceptive injections
  • Give men a reversible and sure shot way in which they can have control in their hands
  • One of the best alternatives till date that is reversible, effective and completely safe than other methods
  • Are good alternatives for those couples who cannot use other contraceptives
  • Give men a good opportunity to share the responsibility of physical and psychological issues connected to using contraceptives like cost of the contraceptive and seeing health professionals at regular intervals of time.

Disadvantages of Male Contraceptive Injections

It is not that the male contraceptive injections are free from disadvantages. Though the advantages are more, yet you should be aware of the disadvantages also before taking the decision.
  • The male contraceptive injection does not offer any protection from HIV or any other STIs
  • Fails to lower the sperm count in some men
  • Raises questions on responsibility between men and women on contraceptive issues, for example, women have to believe on their partners over the method that they cannot see
  • If there arise any kind of side effect using these injections, it takes many years to get it rectified.

Choose the Right Contraceptive

Birth control methods and options for both men and women are many these days. You should choose the contraceptive that is available to you with complete and accurate information. Do not forget to take your partner in confidence and choose the contraceptive that is able to help you have an open conversation with you.
Check out the issues like effectiveness, safety and adverse effects before using any contraceptive method. Also, do not forget to check out the cost, convenience and concerns like trust and control before deciding.

Protection against STIs

No matter what contraceptive you use, you must be sure that there is no risk of STIs (Sexually Transmitted Infections). The method must keep you safe from any kind of infection during oral, vaginal and anal sex.
Remember, no contraceptive is hundred percent effective and hundred percent free from disadvantages. So, you need to choose the one that suits you and your partner and helps you give good result. The best way to decide is to have a discussion with your doctor and then decide on the best method.
Weigh up the pros and cons of different methods and discuss with your partner as well. Convenience and acceptance of both are very important. However, the male contraceptive injections have helped men share the biggest responsibility and prove their concern with the matter as well.

Contraception for men has already been trialled successfully but not rolled out. It has been proven to be fully effective, last nearly a decade and the single injection costs less than the syringe cost.

It can be easily flushed out as well, enabling couples engaged in unprotected sex to have more options than they currently have.

I believe that contraception should be an equal duty and men need more choice, that is why I urge everyone to please sign this petition:

Male contraceptive injections are very safe and effective. They have advantage over condoms. Condoms can break during intercourse and it also reduces the sensations.

Male contraceptive injections are a step forward in helping men play an equal role in family planning. Now not only women but men can prevent unwanted pregnancies. I am very happy that now many contraception options are available for men so the responsibility can be equally shared.
