The good news is that there is progress in a new male contraception called Plan A. The bad news is that it involves a shot to inject a sticky substance into the testicles. How many men do you think will sign up for a shot in their boys?

The shot contains a hydrogel that disrupts the live sperm in semen so it can’t enter a woman during ejaculation. The company that is working on it is called NEXT Life Sciences. They say that this process is reversible but reversing it requires another shot of sodium bicarbonate, which is basically baking soda, to dissolve the hydrogel.

Plan A lasts for approximately 10 years so a man would have to re-up it every decade. That is at least better than an IUD for women, which can last for between 1-3 years before needing replacement.

The founder of NEXT Life Sciences is 29 year-old L.R. Fox. He insists that men his age really want this. What do you think?
