Researchers at the University of Kansas are embarking on an NIH-funded project to develop a male contraceptive pill.  Rather than being hormone-based, the plan is to chemically block the action of several fertility-critical enzymes.  About half a million compounds will be tested in the project, wehich has a declared goal of 100% effectiveness with no risky side effects.

DearHeart, remember http://www.malecontraceptives.org/index.htm ? There is a good place to start to look for those compounds. Neem oil springs to mind.
