LOL. The pull out method is such an effective method of birth control that I have fathered three children that, while I love them dearly, were not planned at all. All it takes is one "heat of the moment" moment, and BAM!!! Pregnant. Hope you love babies, and that your underage man has a great job, so that you don't become the next in a long line of women in the line for government assistance checks/food stamps/etc.
The pull out method works almost perfectly. In fact, it has been covered up by the drug industry, as a safe method because millions buy birth control pills for the sheer joy of the feeling. Follow the money trail...what happens when people can have sex without the need for birth control pills? The outcome is a loss of billions in profits a year and this method is workable. The only problem with the method is the failure to pull out...the heat of the moment thing and/or incomplete pull out and/or reinserting the penis after it has ejaculate without urnination and a wash. I have been doing this method for 3 years consistently, no problems whatsoever. Two rules to follow; make sure that after he cums, he pisses and washes the head after beginning sex again and the second is abstaining from sex when your vaginal fluids are sticky and egg white looking. Obviously it should be with a partner that has the same views on the after effects if a mishap happens in the heat of the moment.
"Even if a man pulls out in time, pregnancy can still happen. Some experts believe that pre-ejaculate, or pre-cum, can pick up enough sperm left in the urethra from a previous ejaculation to cause pregnancy. If a man urinates between ejaculations before having sex again, it will help clear the urethra of sperm and may increase the effectiveness of withdrawal." This is the major problem with pull out method, something I have never DONE ONCE in three years BTW. http://www.plannedparenthood.org/health-topics/birth-control/withdrawal-pull-out-method-4218.htm Also when giving facts about pre-cum, before a man has ejaculated and after he has urinated, are brought to us from studies that we cannot verify where the funding came from. I have read reviews that have show there to be Not a singl trace of semen and others that have. The ones that have shown, I could not verify their funding from. One particular study funded by a human rights group showed there to be no sperm in the pre-ejaculate following these conditions of urniation. The accidently found it to be true after analyzing precum samples in HIV positive men. I will try and find the link but I cant promise anything because I did this research years ago.
WAIIIIT. Don't go to the pill! Natural family planning. My mother told me about it. There's only ONE 24 hour period to when you can get pregnant. HOLD YOUR HORSES READ ON. Sperm can live for up to five days in the vagina so don't try your luck. You basically record a bunch of stuff in a journal for a month, and take your temperature every day. I don't know the exact details (you google it) but your body temp. is slightly higher during that 24 hour period so then you know not to do it. I mean, I barely gave any info on what it really is....but it's ALL natural NO hormones OR rubbers...but I suggest you either wait until your ready or use rubbers OR follow through 100% with the natural way. The only reason it doesn't work is because people slack off!! Good luck.
My 21 month old daughter was conceived because I thought I was infertile after trying with a previous partner to no avail. Afraid of becoming pregnant again as it wasn't (and still isn't now) right for me to be having anymore kids, I tried various pills and the mirena coil. Mirena didn't work for me but I have a tiny and tilted uterus, I know this now. And last year I became pregnant again while using the pop-pill because I wasn't awfully well and didn't absorb the meds properly. (Lost my baby at 3 months gestation). Since then I've tried and tried with condoms - including the non-latex type, but I have so many allergies it's ridiculous. So I relented and have a few weeks ago had the copper coil fitted. Because of the problems they discovered with the mirena, they measured me and did some other unpleasant painful things first, but thanks to that I am now contraceptized! I am against putting crap into my body because I already struggle to keep my weight off and I've also had very negative issues with different pills, my body doesn't like all the meds I have to take sometimes. I'd honestly say that this copper coil has been the least bothersome method of contraception that I've used, it doesn't really interrupt my body at all. Coils aren't for everyone but I can honestly say, if you ask for one and ask them to measure you properly first and check for tilted uterus thingummy, it can make all the difference. There is a light at the end of the proverbial tunnel... now I just got to make sure my partner isn't carrying any std's - I got tested when they did the coil, I'm clean.
If combined with rhythm, it can be effective. Rhythm is not having sex at all 2 days before and after your suspected ovulation day (normally this is 14 days after the first day of menstruating). It doesn't sound like you can go 5 days without, however.
I agree that birth control sucks and it messes with nature, but I take it anyway. I accept the responsibility that comes along with having sex and don't want to have a child right now, so I take it for those reasons. Pulling out is just asking for trouble. Maybe you'd rather have a baby than mess with your body, but it doesn't have to be one or the other ya know.
this is why i love condoms. my friend used the pull out method, when her and her (now ex) boyfriend were dating. even though she was committed, he wasn't, and cheated behind her back. he didn't get her pregnant, but he did give her syphilis.
I prefer the "I'm sterile" method. Works every time. Kinda sucks wen you want to actually have kids though.
Pull out method does not work. Trust me when I say, do not use it as birth control. You're taking a chance. :S
yeah well my boyfriend and i have been using the pull out method for almost 4 months now and haven't gotten pregnant. and my best friend and her boyfriend have been doing it for at least 3 years and they're fine too. the pill isn't totally healthy for you, but i also don't think it would be very good for you to have a baby at a young age when you aren't totally ready for it. i just recently got back on the pill and even though i hate all the stupid side effects, like moodiness and headaches and whatnot, i can deal with that because i know it would just totally suck a lot worse to have a baby when i'm not ready. that's all the advice i can give though.
I agree about not wanting to mess with the cycles.... and I can't take hormonal birth controls because of migraines and honestly the idea of IUDs grosses me out so bad. I would never be comfortable knowing copper was inside me... I use rhythms and pulling out as well as condoms during more dangerous times... I've been having regular sex for more than 2 years and nothing has happened. Whereas my friend had an IUD and she got pregnant almost instantly. So nothing is absolute unless you don't have sex.
Pulling out if fine if you use it in conjunction with the "rhythm method." There's typically 28 days in a woman's cycle, ovulation happening on or around the 14th day. Use the pull out method, and avoid all vaginal intercourse between days 12 and 16, and you've increased your odds of staying pregnancy-free.
hey guys to be honest with you i don't believe in the pull out method,at the end of the day you can still get pregnant!!!!. me myself i use the injection alot more safer and reliable.
this has worked for me and my girlfriend for the past 2 years now. It's not rocket science, it's biology.. Two thing's I'd add: when in doubt, use the morning after pill and always go pee after ejaculating to clear any left over sperm from your urethra.
I would get the iud, if you dont like the hormones so much. But do you really want to have a kid right now? if not I would go for a better kind of birth control, the pull out method is very faulty, and isnt very good for contraception.
I heard somewhere that IUD's can cause cervical cancer because of the copper. And my gyno wouldn't give me the patch because she said it's still faulty. I'm on Alesse and have been for a while with no problems. I guess it all depends on what works best for you although I wouldn't recommend the pull and pray method if you are young and or having a kid isn't an option for you right now.
