Monthly Contraceptive for Men

Weird? I know.

Apparently monthly testosterone shots - in the butt - have the same birth control effects that condoms and the pill do. They did a trial with 1000 men, and the failure rate was 1.1 in 100 (the same as condoms!)

This is very interesting because testosterone increases sex drive. So while it may have a great success rate, there will be an increase in sexual activity, and thus will be less effective than condoms or the pill.

In reference to His Man Friday, I can see this being our best-selling product!!!! This is an old article and I have yet to hear about this entering the mainstream. But if it were to, or we were able to get some sort of exclusive rights, sales would skyrocket!
