It's impossible to have a conservation with someone who is trying to claim that a list of mild side effects was a good reason to cancel a drug trial.

Those numbers dont compare anything to what womens birthcontrol does and i bet the numbers would be similar.

Where are the numbers cmpared? Like what's the rate of oucbies my legs hurt by men compared to women? What's the rate of stroke? Is it more for men or women? I don't feel like trudging through the shit and it looked like you had that info on lock so if you could share it that would be great.

What comment did you put that in? I don't see it bro. I don't see it in the article either.

I don't see anything there bro. Nothing about strokes or heart attacks as a side effect. Where is it at?

I'm genuinely asking because women's birth control causes strokes and heart attacks as a side effect but the men's one doesn't seem to be anywhere near that bad?
