A large-scale cross-sectional survey conducted across seven countries found strong interest in novel male contraceptives, with an average of 61% of men indicating they would try a new method within its first year of availability. Conducted from 2021 to 2023 in six low- and middle-income countries and the U.S., the study assessed contraceptive use, preferences, and perceptions among over 12,000 men and 9,000 female partners. Results showed that men’s preferences were influenced primarily by method of administration and timing, while women across geographies expressed high levels of interest and trust in their male partners’ contraceptive use. These findings point to significant demand and support further investment in the development of novel male contraceptive options.
