A male contraceptive drug is on the way and it could change the game

There’s a game-changing pill out there that could make your sex life better. Scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine have discovered a formula that could finally be the solution to male-centered birth control. According to the New York Post, “Like penicillin, this “game changer” was discovered unintentionally in 2018 when Dr. Melanie Balbach was researching a protein called soluble adenylyl cyclase, or sAC, for an eye condition. When the drug was given to mice, Balbach observed its sperm-halting capabilities.”

A test was done with 52 different pairs of mating mice, and each result failed to produce a pregnancy. In the control group, one-third of mice ended up being pregnant.

In the future, you could be able to pop a pill in the midst of intercourse and and then be protected.
