Potential once-daily male oral contraceptives have passed a first clinical hurdle, showing a degree of testosterone suppression that should be sufficient for a contraceptive effect without causing symptomatic hypogonadism
Hard pass.

hypogonadism - A failure of the gonads, testes in men and ovaries in women, to function properly.
Production of a man's testosterone and a woman's estrogen are inhibited.

I don't know why anyone would take this when a vasectomy has basically no side effects after recovery.

But maybe it'll have a function in preventing hair loss by accident.

Because they don't want to conceive a child at that moment, but they may want to do so at a later point in their life.
Although a vasectomy can be reversed, the reversal procedure is significantly more difficult than a vasectomy, and the more years that pass after the vasectomy, the less likely it is that a reversal procedure is successful.

But yeah, I reckon a decrease in testosterone might make men (understandibly) hesitant to use it. Then again, I can't really imagine another way to temporarily halt sperm production without decreasing testosterone.

I cant understand why people are so hesitant about a pill they claim results in an only temporary loss of function of the testicles.

To many men (including me) a change in testosterone levels can have a notable effect in how they feel and behave. I take zinc supplements specifically for that and personally know other men who do the same. It's not a macho thing or concern about if your junk is still ok, just a matter of feeling good and capable about yourself.

Side effect profile is highly variable, but there are many benefits to BC for women and there are many women who prefer being on BC. Obviously we dont know what the side effect profile of testosterone suppression via male BC is but I cant think of many positives that would come from it.

Just add 'wo' in front of 'men' and change 'testosterone' to 'estrogen'.

But yeah, none of it is ideal until they manage to invent medicines without side effects. Eventually I guess there will be quite a few men who will use it. Personally I'm glad not to ever have to worry about that since I've had a vasectomy anyway.

I'd try it out for sure. I've considered getting a vasectomy, but those aren't guaranteed to be reversible, and I still might want kids in the future. If the side effects are too bad, it would be easy enough to stop taking it. And if there are no side effects, then it would be great.

I dunno; if it results in lower sex drive, they could very well end spending less time on the ol' fap fap train.
