“Hormonal contraception for men is reversible after a few months, a review of a prototype suggests. A review of data from 30 trials on the hormonal contraception, involving a total of about 1,500 men, appears in Saturday’s issue of The Lancet, a medical journal in Britain. Couples may not accept current methods of contraception for men –’ condoms, withdrawal and vasectomy –’ because they aren’t reliable or can’t be reversed easily. ‘Hormonal male contraceptive methods could soon become widely available,’ said the study’s lead author, Peter Liu of the ANZAC Research Institute of the University of Sydney, in Australia.” (04/29/06)
