I mean this is just “sperm suppression”, of course it lowers the risk of pregnancy considerably, but not 100%. I’ll still get my tubes snipped at this point. As a guy you simply don’t have a lot of options if you want to be safe. Condoms and vasectomy, that’s it. And condoms can fail too if you’re unlucky.
As soon as the girl is pregnant all you can do is pray she doesn’t decide to keep the kid :-/
