Abstract

The present invention relates to a method and device for male contraception. In one aspect, the method and device provide temporal and reversible infertility of mammal males without suppressing spermatogenesis. In an aspect, a method of contraception for use with reproductive cells that pass through a tube in a body is described in which energy is applied through the tube wall to some of the reproductive cells that pass through the tube to reduce fertilization ability of the some of the reproductive cells. In another aspect, the device is adapted for use with reproductive cells that pass through a tube in a body, and includes an energy transmitter that delivers energy to the reproductive cells that pass through the tube in the body.
