YCT-529 First Human Trial Of Hormone-free Male Contraceptive. A hormone-free male contraceptive developed by a British company has been tested on humans.
This is the first time that a contraceptive has been developed without hormones. They have more side effects. But now, for the first time, experts have started testing male contraceptives made without hormones on men.
According to Newsweek, 16 British male volunteers have been selected for the trial of the contraceptive drug, which was previously tested on rats. According to the report, the contraceptive is named YCT-529 and is in pill form, which will be administered to 16 men.
The report stated that the said pills will not directly affect the sperm but the system that makes the sperm, making them stronger and speeding up their release.
According to the report, the pills will cause vitamin A deficiency in men, causing them to stop producing sperm and even if some sperm do manage to form, they will not be ejaculated.
According to experts, the pills are made without hormones, which means they have fewer side effects and do not cause irritability, mood swings, or depression in any way.
Male contraceptive pills have been tested successfully before the mentioned pills, while male contraceptive creams have also been made.
According to experts, until now contraceptives made for men do not reduce sexual desire in men, but reduce the number of sperm in them, which causes pregnancy.
