Can men take birth control pills to prevent pregnancy?

As society becomes more open, topics such as cohabitation and contraception are no longer something that needs to be avoided. When it comes to contraception, many young people do not know much about it. Some people even think that letting men take contraceptive pills can also achieve the effect of contraception. This practice is obviously wrong and undesirable. Not only will men taking contraceptive pills fail to achieve the contraceptive effect, but there will also be many side effects:

Men who take birth control pills randomly should be careful about breast development

Contraceptive pills are for use by women, but some ignorant boys, because they want to have sex with girls and the girls refuse to take contraceptive pills, actually think that they can also prevent pregnancy by taking contraceptive pills.

More seriously, they may experience enlarged breasts, edema all over the body, and even hallucinations and difficulty sleeping, which are all side effects of taking birth control pills for men.

What are the dangers of men taking contraceptive pills?

For men who smoke, taking birth control pills can easily cause blood clots, leading to stroke and myocardial infarction; for men with poor liver function, taking birth control pills will only increase the burden on the liver. Some men who have passed menopause even take birth control pills to stay young, but if men take too much estrogen, not only will they not stay young, but they will increase the risk of cancer, such as liver cancer and breast cancer.

Therefore, it is not advisable for men to take birth control pills. Currently, there is no medicine in the medical field that can prevent pregnancy for men. Men and women have different physiological structures, so don't put the cart before the horse, which will eventually lead to irreversible consequences. In addition, women should not take emergency contraceptive pills more than twice a year, otherwise it will cause harm to the body.
