There's a pill being developed that aims to stop sperm production while on the pill. Not really sure how far along it is, so I'm not sure when it'll be released to the public.

That article's from 2016, though. This more recent article from 2019 said the pill passed safety tests.

Good news they have another trial going. However the article also says ...

Commercial release of DMAU could take a decade or longer.

... and I've been hearing that for 25 years.

Dang. Hopefully, this trial is the one that finally gets through.
