What is the side effect permanent or not permanent for taking birth control pills for men?



What is the side effect permanent or not permanent for taking birth control pills for men?

It's funny that a lot of the side effects for men are the same as the side effects for women, except that we are also at an increased risk for bone density loss and heart disease. The difference is that women are willing to accept the side effects because we are the ones who will have to deal with pregnancy, should that happen.

I think it's great that a pill for men is in development/use, it gives men more control over pregnancy prevention instead of relying on condoms and trusting the women they are with take their pills correctly.

Sorry I didn't really answer the question, the above answer was really interesting and I wanted to comment.
Even though a male birth control pill may seem like a great innovation, not all men agree. Some are nervous about the possible side effects that have resulted from a few of these clinical trials, which have included:

mood swings
aggressiveness
lack of libido
acne
weight gain
lowered high density lipoprotein (HDL, the good cholesterol) levels
impotence
long-term infertility
