5th birth control method-Coitus interruptus


Coitus interruptus, also known as withdrawal method, is a contraceptive method where the semen is ejaculated outside and away from the vagina. Withdrawal may be the world's oldest way to practice birth control. It is used by an estimated 38 million couples worldwide.

Of every 100 women whose partners use withdrawal, 4% will become pregnant each year if they always do it correctly.
Of every 100 women whose partners use withdrawal, 27% will become pregnant each year if they don't always do it correctly.

Couples who have great self-control, experience, and trust may use the pull out method more effectively. Men who use the pull out method must be able to know when they are reaching the point in sexual excitement when ejaculation can no longer be stopped or postponed. If you cannot predict this moment accurately, withdrawal will not be as effective.

Some medical professionals view withdrawal as an ineffective method of birth control because pre-ejaculate, or pre-cum, can pick up enough sperm left in the urethra from a previous ejaculation to cause pregnancy.
