Withdrawal is a contraceptive method that many people choose to use but is it really effective? This question is very important because even though many couples believe that if the partner can control well, there is no chance of pregnancy, in reality, this method is not as safe as thought.
1. What is withdrawal and how does it work
Withdrawal is when the male withdraws the penis from the vagina before ejaculation to prevent sperm from entering the uterus. However, no matter how much the male tries to control the timing, there is still a risk of pregnancy, and withdrawal is not a contraceptive method.
2. Why does withdrawal have a chance of pregnancy
- Sperm may leak out with pre-ejaculatory fluid
- Timing control may fail, allowing sperm to enter the vagina
- The ability to control varies from person to person
3. Can withdrawal prevent sexually transmitted diseases
- This method cannot prevent sexually transmitted diseases at all
- It may risk HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, and HPV virus
4. More effective methods of preventing pregnancy
Instead of using withdrawal, choose safer methods such as
- Condoms can prevent both pregnancy and diseases
- Monthly birth control pills are convenient and highly effective
- Injectable contraceptives or implant contraceptives for those who want long-term contraception
