It seems like you didn't attach a link. What does long-lasting in this context mean?

If it's too long, it might be a problem if you do decide on wanting a child. If you're certain on never wanting one, you could just get a vasectomy or the equivalent for woman and be done with it.

or the equivalent for woman and be done with it.

You'll probably find that one to be more difficult than you think, especially in these regressive times.

Sorry, I added the link in an edit. according to the article as well as another referenced in nature, the duration is "months to years" or ">3 months" so it sounds like the formulation can vary but long term enough to be both convenient and non-permanent for longer term planning.
