Really looking forward to see if this finally solves the problem we've all wanted, I do sincerely hope the best for future research.
In animal tests, the team found that a single daily oral dose rendered male mice infertile within three to four weeks, and monkeys in five to six weeks.

The team says that triptonide ticks all the right boxes. Not only is it effective and easy to take as a pill, but it’s non-hormonal, so it shouldn’t result in any unwanted mood or behavioral changes. No toxic side effects were noted either, and perhaps most importantly, the process is completely reversible – when the treatment is halted, fertility returns within four to six weeks.

I hope so. I lost faith in male contraceptive methods. Waiting for risug/vasalgel for a decade or more. We hear some news about a new thing and it's silence for years after that, then another news...

We hear some news about a new thing and it's silence for years after that, then another news of a totally different method appears and the cycle continues.

As someone who seriously considers getting a vasectomy, this is awesome. My only concern is that the human population might eventually disappear :P
