Scientists at Cornell University may be closing in on the long-sought “holy grail” of male contraception: a safe, reversible, nonhormonal method that completely halts sperm production. In a breakthrough mouse study, researchers used a compound called JQ1 to temporarily shut down meiosis—the critical process that produces sperm—without causing lasting harm. After treatment stopped, sperm production bounced back, fertility returned, and the animals produced healthy offspring.
Kinda hard to make male contraceptives. Women are naturally infertile for most of the time not spent actively ovulating. They are permanently infertile during pregnancy, real or synthetic. But men? We’re always churning out swimmers. When that process stops, something has gone very wrong.
So, artificially induce a naturally occurring phenomenon vs artificially terminate a constant mechanism.

Well not with that attitude!
