New contraceptive pills for men

This new invention of contraceptive gel is said to be safe, highly effective and is being developed by scientists

Once the gel material is in place in the vas deferens, it becomes a filter for the semen to pass through ejaculation but prevents sperm from staying. This measure is similar to the IUD in women. So far, Vasagel has demonstrated the contraceptive effect in baboons and rabbits in the laboratory.

Researchers are currently focusing to improve the effectiveness of contraceptive gel by 99% and produce it into oral form. They hope this invention will open a new era in preventing pregnancy for men, balancing the responsibility for family planning.

Remote control IC circuit

The new type of contraceptive chip is about the size of a postage stamp. When implanted under the skin of a woman, it will "release" a certain amount of contraceptives daily, helping owners feel confident to "do it" without having "unexpected consequences".

The new invention of the contraceptive IC helps the weaker sex prevent pregnancy for up to 16 years

The mechanism of the contraceptive chip's operation is as follows: at the time of the pre-programmed release of the drug, a small electric current will melt the metal coating in a chip in the chip, releasing the levonorgestrel hormone into the bloodstream. Remote control can be used to reprogram the operation of the chip when needed.

While the implantable contraceptive devices available on the market have a maximum lifespan of 5 years, a new contraceptive chip can last up to 16 years - almost half of the time available. women's products.

Subcutaneous contraceptive implants can be switched on - off at the discretion of the user

Another advantage of the contraceptive chip is that it is developed with a remote control. This means, the woman can simply turn off the device if she wants to give birth at any time. And when she wants to prevent pregnancy, she can activate the chip easily.

Contraceptive stickers

Ortho-Mac Neil Manufacturing Institute (Johnson & Johnson's subsidiary), the United States has researched and invented a new form of birth control by sticking it to the user's skin. The mechanism of this sticker is similar to that of birth control pills, but the usage is much simpler. As long as people use it 3 times a month, the active ingredients in the patch will automatically diffuse slowly through the skin and help prevent pregnancy.

The effect of this type of birth control is to release the active ingredient of progesterone and estrogen continuously for a week when used on the lower abdomen or on the thigh of a woman who wants to prevent pregnancy.

The new invention of birth control stickers helps users remember more than taking pills every day

With the menstrual cycle every month, women will only need to change stamps on a fixed day of the week (for 3 weeks). Since the fourth week every month, no more stickers are required. Weekly stamp replacement will help users remember more than taking tablets every day.

Research on 3,329 women showed that the stamping was much more popular than taking medicine. In addition, the gradual release of active ingredients also helps to reduce side effects such as vomiting for users when the levels of hormones in the body increase or decrease significantly.

Pants with condoms

Conventional condoms for men are designed to prevent semen of a man from interacting with mates, as well as protect users from the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). . However, they only shield the skin around the penis, and leave the scrotum as well as the unprotected pubic area.

New invention on pants in the form of condoms minimizes the risk of infection when having sex

A pants-like condom called Scroguard has overcome this drawback. Built together with rubber latex like the most popular condoms today, Scroguard covers most of the male genitalia. When worn with a regular condom, Scroguard will limit skin contact to the skin, minimizing the risk of infection with STIs such as genital herpes or warts.

Contraceptive vaccine for men

Researchers at the University of Edinburgh (UK) have developed a new type of contraceptive for men, opening up the prospect of liberating women from the burden of family planning in the near future.

The new invention of contraceptive vaccines for men reduces semen volume to the lowest level

Researchers claim that the new contraceptive injection technique can reduce sperm count in men from more than 20 million sperm / ml to 0. In the mean time, men will not be able to make you If you have a sperm count lower than the threshold of 1 million / ml.

The new drug is advertised as having a better prevention of contraception than condoms and has a similar success rate to birth control pills for women. According to the research team, to get the best results, gentlemen need to be given a new contraceptive every two months.

Contraceptive vaccine for women

Using injections is a safe way to prevent pregnancy. Each injection has a contraceptive effect of 3 months because it contains a high level of progestin hormone. The drug has the effect of inhibiting ovulation, thickening cervical mucus to prevent sperm from moving, thinning the endometrium and reducing the motility of the oviduct.

Contraceptive vaccine for women who use drugs with high contraceptive efficacy and prolonged contraceptive period

The medicine will be injected into the upper area of ​​the arm or into the buttocks every 3 months. The first injection will be given for the first 5 days of menstruation to be effective immediately. The drug has a high contraceptive effect and a long contraceptive period, which is very convenient for women who have no conditions to take daily birth control pills. The effectiveness of the drug among users can be up to 97%.

Contraceptive sprays

This once-a-day spray contains a drug that penetrates the skin into the blood. A handheld device is programmed to produce the same amount of medication each time sprayed on the arm. Tests showed that the spray dried within a few seconds, forming a waterproof membrane. Sprays have a substance called Nestorone, a progestogen.

Sprays are also a convenient contraceptive method for women who often forget to take medicine

The results showed that the drug not only penetrates the skin quickly, but also maintains a stable dose of birth control pills, instead of higher or lower doses that occur sometimes with pill. Because new drugs do not need to be taken at the same time every day, scientists predict new drugs are very suitable for women who often forget to take them.

The diaphragm is in the form of "dome-shaped" made of soft, thin rubber or silicon

The diaphragm is placed into the vagina before intercourse, locating it so that it keeps semen from flowing anywhere near your cervix. When using the diaphragm, almost every woman does not feel uncomfortable, very few people are allergic to the material that makes the diaphragm. The main advantage of the diaphragm is to allow natural intercourse and ensure the contraceptive rate is 92-96%.
