    Yes here is an article about it. Article

    The relevant part. “The binary nature of the Bimek SLV might make it seem that you can switch off your potency at will, but the body will need time to flush existing sperm out of the system, as it were. The ever-helpful FAQ says that it may take up to three months, or “until about your 30th ejaculation.” Whichever comes first is a question only you can answer.”

        Yep. For anyone who’s that serious about not having children, that’s more like an incentive.

          When I got mine, the doc said I should wait about two weeks then “ejaculate as frequently as possible” before returning for the scheduled checkup/semen test.

          Doctor’s orders! 🫡

            Lol I was given the same advice.

            “Go home, rest up for two weeks, the bust as much as you can before you come back and get tested”

      To clarify why, it’s because sperm travels through those tubes for at least 5 days before reaching maturity and then once in position can be ejaculated by a pressure differential caused by the prostate (that bulb thing between the balls and urethra). So an effective switch with an instant effect would need to be placed before but directly adjacent to the prostate which could have potential complications when the prostate attempts to dry fire with the feed shuttered.

      The solution is clearly to add a synthetic pressure bladder. (Don’t, I’m joking).
