Prostate Restored

Most people only release a small amount, and it doesn't typically contain sperm. But sperm cells lingering in the urethra from a recent ejaculation can mix with the pre-cum. Even if you manage to nail your timing and pull out before ejaculating, even a tiny bit of the fluid can get lead to pregnancy.

Read More »Is it possible? Yes. You can get pregnant from the pull-out method. The pull-out method, also called withdrawal — or coitus interruptus if you wanna get fancy — involves pulling the penis out of the vagina before ejaculation. In theory, one can see how this might work, but there’s more to it. If you’re relying on the pull-out method for contraception or considering it, read on to learn what can go wrong and why it’s probably not a good idea. What if I’m not ovulating? Yep, still possible. While it’s true that your chances of pregnancy are higher when you’re ovulating, that doesn’t mean you can’t get pregnant when you aren’t ovulating. Sperm can live in your body for as many as seven days. Even if you aren’t ovulating when you have sex, if there’s sperm in your reproductive tract, it may still be alive when you do ovulate. How often does the pull-out method work? The perfect-use failure rate for the pull-out method is 4 percent . This means that, when done perfectly, the pull-out method prevents pregnancy 96 percent of the time. Still, it’s estimated 18 to 28 percent of couples using the method will get pregnant within the first year. That’s largely because it’s hard to pull off a perfect pullout. What’s considered perfect use? Contraception success rates are measured in typical use versus perfect use. Typical use refers to how people realistically use the method, while perfect use refers to, well, perfect use. The person with the penis has to pull it out of the vagina when they feel they’re about to ejaculate and offloading away from the genitals. It sounds simple, but timing can be hard to control, and this doesn’t even take pre-ejaculate into account (yep, you can get pregnant from pre-cum, too). Perfect use also involves taking precautions before having sex again. To make sure the penis is totally free and clear of any residual semen, the person needs to urinate and clean off the tip of their penis before going in for another round. This can be a bit of a mood killer for some. That sounds tricky — are there any ways to practice? Perfecting the pull-out method is indeed tricky and practice is unlikely to make it much more effective. If you’d still like to give it a try, you need to work on perfecting your timing. To do this, practice while wearing a condom. As you approach orgasm, try to pay attention to any signals or signs that will help you better identify when you’re about to orgasm in the future. Don’t attempt to try this method without a condom until you’re confident in your timing. And even then, it’s wise to use a backup method. What can go wrong? A couple of things. For one, it’s hard to withdraw when you’re in the throes of ecstasy. The pull-out method also doesn’t provide protection against STIs. Pre-cum is another risk. This is the clear fluid that’s released by the penis when a person becomes sexually aroused. Most people only release a small amount, and it doesn’t typically contain sperm. But sperm cells lingering in the urethra from a recent ejaculation can mix with the pre-cum. Even if you manage to nail your timing and pull out before ejaculating, even a tiny bit of the fluid can get lead to pregnancy.

Learn More »Are there ways to make it more effective? The pull-out method isn’t reliable, but there are a few things you can do that might make it slightly more effective. Track ovulation You can lower the risk of pregnancy by tracking ovulation. Just remember that you can still get pregnant before and after ovulation. The ovulating partner can use the fertility awareness method to track when they’re most fertile. Once you know when your fertile window is, you can avoid sex or the pull-out method during this time. There are also a number of fertility apps that you can use to track your periods and ovulation. Use a backup method of birth control Withdrawal isn’t recommended as a primary method of birth control due to its high failure rate, but it makes a great secondary method. Using a backup method along with withdrawal can significantly reduce the risk of pregnancy. Use it along with other birth control methods, such as: condoms
