Recently, researchers have tested a new potential contraceptive for men, with success. The funds should come as a tablet on the market, and as a “pill for the man”. FOCUS Online has interviewed male Users, if you can think of to take the pill. The opinions diverge.
About half of the German men (49.9 percent) can imagine, for contraception, the "Pill for the Mann" to take. This is the result of a representative survey by the opinion research Institute Civey. In the survey, the responses from 3043 participants were taken into account.
The exact question was: "Can you imagine, in principle, to the contraception the 'Pill for the Mann' to take?" Slightly more than one in three Respondents (36 per cent) closes the intake completely. 14.3 percent are undecided.

The survey was created against the Backdrop that researchers at the University of Washington recently tested a hormonal active ingredient. This inhibits the production of the body’s own testosterone in the testes and interfere with sperm production. The funds should come as a tablet on the market and as a "Pill for the Mann" serve.
Last year, scientists tested a drug that has been proved as a potential contraceptive. The new active ingredient 11-Beta-Methyl-19-nortestosterone-Dodekylcarbonat or short-11-Beta-MNTDC has now provided an even better test results.
