The female pill was seen to have its side effects such as weight gain, depression and increased level of cholesterol known as low-density lipoprotein which increases heart disease risks. Women could also experience blood clotting which tampers with ones health.
Recently this year a team of scientists said they had developed an oral male contraceptive pill. They performed several tests of the pill on a Mice and found it to be 99% effective without causing side effects. They also added that they could perform human trials by the end of this year.
The findings was then proposed to be handed to the American Chemical Society's spring meeting and mark a key step towards expanding birth control options as well as responsibilities for men.
