TRADITIONAL METHODS OF CONTRACEPTION: THE WITHDRAWAL METHOD
Another traditional method is called the Withdrawal method. It is usually just called withdrawal, so that’s what we will call it. It is also known as coitus interruptus or ‘being careful’. Withdrawal is not talked about much or recommended anymore, as there are so many other reliable methods available, but it has been used fairly successfully for centuries.
What is withdrawal? Withdrawal involves the man removing his penis from the woman’s vagina just before he ejaculates or ‘comes’.
How does withdrawal work? If the man does not ejaculate inside the woman, there will be no sperm in the Fallopian tubes to meet an egg and start a pregnancy.
How effective is withdrawal? Withdrawal has not been studied a lot as a method of contraception, but it is thought to be quite effective as long as the couple is committed to using it and the man has enough control to do it properly.
How do you use withdrawal? You have sex until the man feels that he is about to come. Then he pulls out of the woman’s vagina and ejaculates somewhere away from the entrance to her vagina, so that semen does not get inside her.
Why would I want to choose withdrawal?
You may want to choose withdrawal if a situation arises where you have sex unexpectedly and there is no other method available. You may want to use it as a backup to another method, particularly a natural method. Some people choose withdrawal so they can have a rest from other methods, especially when an unexpected pregnancy would not be a problem. Withdrawal doesn’t cost anything and is always available.
