Vasalgel is a better, proven, effective, safe, and easily reversible option.
Why hasn’t it been approved yet?
Easier to get guys to take a pill than agree to a needle to the ballsack.
Even so, there is a lot of interest in vasalgel. That's not what's holding it up.
... there it is
As a longtime donor of the project, last I checked there were still concerns about the reversability of the treatment
Abstinence is another easy and free solution but it also hasn’t been approved yet I guess.
Cool, I just won’t touch my wife ever again, thanks for the advice.
Not sure how that’s relevant at all. This is a waste of resources and of money one way or another
Wow, I find that that’s a level of unwarranted personal attack
could you explain to me why a communist is advocating for abstinence?
Contraception is a waste of time and resources when there is a free and 100% effective method for most people
you cannot be serious
I have no clue what you mean. I can’t be serious about saying that just not engaging in such unnecessary stupidity would save money and effort?
