Jesus, a 3-year birth control implant?
I find it shocking that we pump our young healthy girls full of synthetic estrogens/progestins to keep them from getting pregnant, meanwhile by some logic it is a literal felony to do the same to young healthy men (with synthetic androgens) because it may cause mood changes and temporary sterilization.
I can't even imagine something for men that would give them 3 years of artificial androgens without also giving them some sort of lasting damage to a major organ (probably heart, kidneys, and/or liver) let alone the damage to the reproductive system.
Society needs to wake the fuck up on birth control. It's a scourge.
