A new pill for men could work as a temporary vasectomy and allow men to share the task of family planning without affecting their fertility.
It has been developed by scientists at Monash University in Australia and could mean men could share responsibility for birth control for the first time.
Dr Sabatino Ventura, who led the research, said by blocking two proteins involved in the ejaculation process instead of trying to change a man's hormones or kill off sperm would significantly reduce the potential for harmful side effects. It would also not alter a man's sex drive.
However there are likely to be concerns from women who fear men will fail to take the pill for it to act as a reliable form of birth control(lol).
If the pill is proven to work in men, this would increase the number of contraception options available to them as they currently only have condoms or a permanent surgical vasectomy.
