Pill for men a step closer

Updated: June 5, 2011 10:06 p.m. info.


LONDON - After many years research on contraceptive pills for men - with little success, due to hormonal side effects. The new pill works as an "anti-vitamin 'and let the libido alone.

Temporarily disable the fertility in men is somewhat more difficult than in women. Instead of one ovulation per month, men produce millions of sperm cells per day to avoid.

For hormonal contraceptives this works only with relatively high doses - which may again be associated with side effects such as decreased libido.

A group of American researchers therefore decided to find another route to the so-called "spermatogenesis" temporarily interrupt.

Synthetic vitamin deficiency
Earlier research had already known that the production of sperm cells in humans and animals can end with severe vitamin A deficiency. Now is such a shortage in the western world not only very rare, it is also undesirable, because vitamin A is important for many other body functions, such as night vision.

But the vitamin appears in testes do its work through a specific receptor - a type of antenna that gives a signal as soon as vitamin A stick. And this receptor seems to play no significant role in other functions of the vitamin.

No sperm
The new pill therefore contains a substance chemically similar to the vitamin, but not the same effect. The vitamin receptor is occupied by this substance, and the production of sperm stops.

The results were published in the journal Endocrinology. According to the researchers, a low dosage already effective to prevent pregnancy. They found no adverse short term and will now see if the male pill, even after several years use poses no health risks.

Great Van for this link !

It is from UTRECHT, same city as Prof Waldinger??? I think so, perhaps it would be great to make a link between this and POIS sperm allergy for some trials.

The researchers that study the birth control pill for men, are from New York. They tested it on mice and are now ready for trials on humans? Any volunteers?

I m. for a few hours (my plan was to have arousal but nog O.). Not so smart. Look what happened: I had a rash on the hand which touched the sperm. For me this is another prove that in my case it's about allergies. Of course maybe there are other causes too.

I went to my GP yesterday and he for the first time actually knew about POIS and had lots of info on it. He had read the Waldinger study. He agreed with me that all this is still in the research stage and he took lots of blood test, and I have to urinate in a Jug for 24 hours. He prescribed me Buproprion HCL (Wellbutrin). So guys, I will try it and report back. Luckily I was in day 2 of POIS when I had the blood drawn so I will report back on my results.

Yes the pulse and the back hand. Yes very red. And this is a few hours after. Today my hand is still a bit red. Imagine what effect this has on the organs and the inner body.
