Its a wonder drug if they give it to the majority of men in Africa and Asia to stem the population growth.
They'd need to be forced to take it. Fertility is tied very strong to masculinity in much of the world outside of the west, and most men AND women in these places desire larger families than their western counterparts. I don't expect fertility rates in Africa and South Asia to get much lower than they are now. There's still room for continued decline, but these people are going to settle at a level much higher than that of their western counterparts.
That s probably a good thing in the long term. We don't want the entire world adopting unsustainable western sub-replacement fertility trends. Someone has to reproduce.
