seems like it’s significantly less effective than female hormonal contraceptive - up to 4.5% or more compared to 0.3%

one of the ones i saw was just straightup permanent for like 1 in 5 men

it's such a delicate system that those organs hafta dangle outside of your body, it really shouldn't be surprising

it got shut down because our military/industrial/lovely job complex lives or dies on dumb, dumb young men cumming in their partners and making babies that will grow up with lovely life chances and get auto-bucketed into the Troop/Cop/Amazon Picker/Food service career path. They used some "uhhhh there's a 2% failure rate, we can't have that" justification to cover that up, though.

it's more like how copper IUDs work

in that they don't fully understand the mechanism(s)


but you can think of it as a static charge that kills all the sperm that come near the material (that's not how it works)

it doesn't plug anything up. tho there used to be an implantable one that did that i think

you know how a vasectomy works, right? a chunk of my vas was removed and both ends cauterized. sperm is still produced, but doesn't go anywhere and just dies as if i wasn't having sex at all. although the "plugging" of the vas isn't really what's happening, as hp explained, plugging (if possible) would have basically the same result.

is there a way for them to just jab a needle in and grab sperm straight from the source? i know reversing a vasectomy is complicated but seems like it'd be easier to just go in and grab some sperm than to gently caress around with reconnecting teeny tiny little tubes. feel like if that was an option maybe more people would be willing to just get the snip.

maybe i should just get it done anyway. i wouldn't bet on getting hitched with anyone in the next few years and i'm not sure i'd want to father a child in my 40s.

yeah they can but then you're in IVF territory so you'd better have some money to throw at that

If you're under 35 and pass some medical screening stuff you pay a single sum and then they guarantee success and will keep doing it until one takes. Gotta imagine most people are offsetting the costs of folks to have multiple unsuccessful attempts

procedures that are not usually covered by insurance, expensive medications, and expensive specialists. also the need for repeat cycles of the same expensive drugs. imaging was more of a racket a decade or two ago, i don’t think knowledgeable people would say that now

ivf is expensive because 40 is really old to be having kids. young people can do the cheap ivf (in vivo fertilization)
