Researchers in Virginia who injected 23 men with the non-hormonal birth control - called ADAM - said sperm counts in participants ejaculations dropped by 99 to 100 percent just a month after the procedure.
Billed as an "IUD for men," ADAM, a first-of-its-kind water-soluble hydrogel, was found to significantly reduce the sperm motility and concentration similar to that of a vasectomy the difference being that ADAM is reversible.
Contraline released promising data from the clinical trial it’s conducting to test the efficacy of Adam, its male birth control product. The nonhormonal gel seems to be doing a good job of blocking the flow of sperm to the vas deferens, and no serious adverse events have been reported.
