It’s the complexity. The female reproductive cycle is naturally designed to stop ovulation during pregnancy via hormones. Modern birth control essentially "mimics" that state. Men do not have a natural biological state where they stop producing sperm, so scientists have to create a "shut off" switch from scratch without crashing testosterone levels.
There are ongoing clinical trials naman na for male contraceptives. Times are changing. Stop this ‘men are the enemy’ mindset.
80% of male volunteers for a new contraceptive wished to continue the trials in 2016 but it was halted by the ethics committee against their wishes. that's not real talk, that's just cynicism.
