Withdrawal has got to be the oldest and most popular form of birth control. Here we will review if you really know everything you’ve got to know about this method. You’ll definitely be surprised about how good or how lousy it can be, all depending on you. The good thing about this method is that you will have to inevitably know better about your little swimmers, called the sperm, and just how reliable and adamant they can be.
In the heat of sexual excitement, the penis releases two kinds of fluids. The first fluid is called pre-ejaculate or the pre-cum which is released when aroused but prior to ejaculation, as its name suggests. The pre-cum is a lubricant that is made in a gland of the penis. This fluid usually has no sperm though it can transmit infections. However studies show that the pre-cum can carry the sperms of the previous ejaculation. Therefore the pre-cum of the second round or succeeding rounds of sex might already contain sperm. Many reliable scientific sources discuss the ineffectiveness of withdrawal because of the pre-cum and how it can contain sperm. Because you know that the previous ejaculations can leave sperm behind in the folds of your penis, you can therefore predict and prepare for your pre-cum. I suggest that you try urination before another round of intercourse so that you can wash over whatever leftover sperm that might still be in your urethra. The urethra is the tube where both your urine and semen use to exit the penis.
The second fluid that is released heat of sexual excitement goes with the flow of your ejaculation, it is called the semen. This fluid is made in the testicles and carries along with it thousands of sperm along with any sexually transmittable infections that may be present. By this alone, you can assume that any semen that may stray during withdrawal will not only protect the couple form unwanted pregnancy but also from STD’s and unwanted diseases.
