| Method |
 |
The man withdraws his penis from the vagina before ejaculation. |
|
| Success Rate |
|
With typical use, 19 women in 100 become pregnant in one year. With perfect use four women in 100 will become pregnant in one year. |
|
| Benefits |
|
It’s better than not using any protection, but it isn’t a very effective method of birth control. |
|
| Drawbacks |
|
Because sperm can live in pre-ejaculate, even if a man withdraws early, there is a chance of getting pregnant. It does not protect against STDs, including HIV. Also, it may be a stressful method to rely on--women have to rely on men to get it right; and men have to remember to withdraw prior to ejaculation.
