What are the chances of becoming pregnant with the withdrawel method.?

Question

My boyfriend and i used the withdrawel method on sunday. I have just gotten over my period about 2-3 days before that. The penis wasn't in but a minute or so. He pulled out before ejaculation. He didnt even ejaculate after that. We have done this method twice that day. Can anyone tell me what the chances of becoming pregnant are. We have used this method before and it was a sucess..But im still worried.

Answer 1

Hopefully you're on some other form of birth control - - I'd say your chances are just as good if you had full blown sex. Even though he doesn't ejeculate, his pre-ejaculation fluids still contain sperm. Be Safe.

Answer 2

With the pull-out method your chances of becoming pregnant are not as high, but still possible. There can be some sperm in the pre-ejaculation fluid. I doubt your pregnant since this happened only 2-3 days after you period, but you never know. It's best for you to use a condom until your next period starts, than you may want to consider getting on the birth control pill. Don't trust the pull-out method.

Answer 3

There is always a chance you can get pregnant when you dont use a proper method of birth control. My husband and I use the same method but I did unexpectedly become pregnant with our daughter. How are you sure he didnt ejaculaet?? and there's always sperm in the pre-***. Even though you just had your period which makes the risk of getting pregnant low, there is still a risk. If you have an irregular cycle you could be ovulating as early as one day after your period and sperm can live inside of a woman for 2-3 days. It's best not to worry and wait for your period. If you cant wait that long there are test that you can take before your misseed period. Hope this helps!

Answer 4

Unfortunately the withdrawl method is totally unreliable. A man does ejaculate a little bit when he gets excited. It is normal to have "pre-ejaculate" and it can get you pregnant. The only way you can tell for sure if you are pregnant or not is by waiting for your period to come again. If you are late, you should take an early pregnancy test. From now on use a condom and you won't have to worry.

Answer 5

Come on Hun!!! Use some birth control. The withdrawl method isnt exactly a great form of it. Out of a hundred women using this method about 80% become pregnant within the year. Go to planned parenthood and get some oral contraception. If you are worried get Plan B. I dont know how effective it would be now but if you are obvioulsy immature enough not to use bc then you are definatley too immature to raise a baby.

Answer 6

You have a 60-40 ratio of getting pregnant. The penis leaks sperm before it actually ejaculates. My husband and I have used that method a lot and have 2 children out of those many times. You might want to ask your Dr. about the morning after pill if you continue to use this method.

Answer 7

Buh! It baffles me sometimes the things people say.

Pulling out, while not the best method of birth control is reliable IF you're doing it properly. And even then, you're still taking a chance. If you couple pulling out with the fertility awareness method, your chances get a little smaller. But unless you know exactly when you're ovulating, and you know that he can PERFECTLY pull out then it's best not to leave things to chance.

It's not so much the viable sperm in the precum, so much as it is leftover sperm in there that can indeed get pushed out with it. Precum is pretty useless when it comes to fertilization, it's those left over guys that get you. Having him urinate before you have sex, ALMOST gurantees that those leftovers have been removed.

Again, NONE of that is a gurantee. If you don't want to become pregnant, take more precautions instead of throwing it in the wind.

Answer 8

That is not a very effective method of birth control. You should get on Birth Control, use condoms and/or spermicides. With the withdrawn method, it is possible that a sperm or two or more could slip out prior to full ejaculation. (remember, it only takes ONE SPERM to the egg to have a baby) Also remember, the only 100% method of BC is no sex, there is always a risk.
You should both use your brains here, that is unless you want to have a baby.

Answer 9

Success rate is 86%, but that leaves a large failure rate. The good news is based on the days you did it you may be ok. I would still consider bc rather than worry over this method. Even precum has sperm in it as does his ejaculate.

Answer 10

In your case because you have just finished your period it is not very likely that you are pregnant.Seminal fluid comes out before actual ejaculation,So it probably isn't the best method.
