It's called ejaculation. And the pull out method is a no no.

Pulling out is an ineffective means of birth control.

Every sex ed course teaches this obvious fact.

 

[Auryg]

It's better than nothing though.

Not significantly.

It's like smoking two packs a day instead of three and thinking, well, two packs is better than three...

A good idea on the effectiveness of verious birth control methods:

Note that pulling out is highly INeffective.

Actually, the morning after pill is still effective this far out.

Well from what I know, the pulling out method is ineffective, because well, a lot of guys can't control themselves and pull out in time. Precum however, according to most sites, does not contain sperm (though a lot of places generally err on the side of caution and say it might).

If he knows he pulled out before ejaculating in this one instance, it is much more effective than finishiing inside of her. If he does it constantly, as a means of birth control, then yeah, it's not a bright idea at all.

I fail to see the part where it says pulling out is an effective means of birth control.

read the table where it says 'withdrawal'

typical use withdrawal has a 19% rate of unintended pregnancy
chance gives an 85% rate of pregnancy
male condom gives a 14% of pregnancy

Their numbers are wildly different than the numbers I posted.

I wonder what their respective sources were, and if human error was included?

In my link, it says the rates apply to couples who use the respective methods as their primary means. Meaning human error plays a part.

At any rate, pulling out is one of the least effective means of birth control... discounting human error. Simply because while human error can be minimized, pre-cum cannot.

typical includes human error. there is also a 'perfect' column if you'd bother reading the table.

 

[KarenMarie]

there are pregnancy tests that are accurate on the the first missed day of her cycle. How long before she is due? If she is PMSing, the hormones might intefere with the results. I am not sure, cause i have never had to rely on a test.

not to be mean... but instead of posting here,... perhaps you should take a trip to the local Walgreens and read the back of some boxes.

good luck.

How the hell do you get 3000 posts in 3 months

By being an annoying useless nef who hopefully WILL get banned.

Wow who peed in your cornflakes?

Edit: Nevermind you're the guy who is upset that I don't want to cure all diseases. I remember now.

That accounted for about 5 of your 3000 annoying, worthless posts.

You really are among the most worthless members in AT history. Even more than when I was a newb.

Pre-cum does not contain sperm unless sperm remained from a prior ejaculation (earlier in the day, for example). If he took a piss in between, there is likely no sperm in precum.

(If refuting this, I'd be interested in a credible link that says otherwise.)

maybe he'll grow out of it, like you.

I was pretty bad. It took a few years.

But hey at least back then while I was horridly annoying in OT I contributed alot in the Video forum to make up for it.

Lets look at your numbers. No method: 85% get pregnant. Withdrawl: 27% get pregnant. Pregnancies down by nearly 4:1 ratio. That has a significant impact. Anything with a signficant impact is at least somewhat effective. It is better than nothing. Of course, other methods are far better. But that doesn't change the point that withdrawal does have an effect.

Less effective is a much better term than ineffective.

Yeah but I seem to have really pushed you over the edge with that one.

Anyway what was your contribution to the thread? I answered the question.

Whetever..... if the little e-drama you have created in your head makes you a happier person carry on......

Update

Just spoke to her and apperantly the day that we had sex was the first day she had gotten off her period. I remember reading somewhere that its unlikely for a girl to get pregnant during her period or a week after it. Its weird though because today she told me that last night she had her period again.... So i'm guessing theres no way shes pregnant and i have nothing to worry about. btw, she has a history of crazy period cycles.

 

[geno]

I think you have to wait at least 2 weeks before the test can be considered somewhat accurate

 

[mercanucaribe]

Why didn't anyone point out the humor of him asking how long HE should wait to take the test?
