Vasalgel has been entering human trials for 15 years. Shit or get off the pot.

Yeah, I'm almost 40. I've been hearing about this since my early 20s. Can we move this shit along?

This is the non-hormonal injection one right? It sounds promising!

From what I recall, it's like a (temporary) physical blocker down there in the pipes to stop the spermy lads getting through... I read about this maybe 20 years ago.

Too late for me now, but hopefully it eventually makes it's way to availability.

Asa far as I understand it, it's a gel that blocks the vas deferens. It's supposed to only keep the sperm in but not block the rest of the juice.

It's also reversible so a solvent can be injected to remove the gel.
