Control Sperm at the Push of a Button.

What do remote controls and birth control have in common ?

Quite a lot according to a team of Australian scientists who are trying to develop a ‘remote-controlled controceptive implant for men.’ Right now it’s stll being tested in the laboratory but if successful could provide an alternative to the non-reversable vasectomy.

Made from a specially coated silicone-based material, the implant (a small radio-controlled valve) is no larger than a grain of rice and would be inserted into the vas deferens (the duct which carries sperm from each testicle to the penis) using a hypodermic needle.

Once inserted, the implant valve would open and close as directed by a transmitter that is programmed with the implants unique ID tag.  But the remote control transmitter is not something that would be needed very often as the idea is for the valve to remain closed as a form of contraceptive, only to be opened if conception is being considered.

So to avoid any unwanted surprises, you’d want to make sure you didn’t get the ’sperm remote’ confused with the TV remote.
