How effective is the “Pull Out” method?

Question

Did it work for you? If so, how long did you use the pull out method? Do you know anyone, or experienced it yourself, that had gotten pregnant from this method? Ttc #3 after using this method for a year and a half.

Answer

This is a group for those trying to conceive so I'm sure no one is pulling out in here.

Answer

I just turned 24 and my 8 year old daughter is proof that it’s not effective 😅

Answer

My husband and I have used the pull out method for ten years... we have two planned children who took three months each to conceive and are now trying for #3... We knew the risk and we were fine with it but obviously it’s worked well for us.

Answer

My fiancé and I used this method for 8+ years without any accidents and I’ve been off of hormonal birth control for 10+ years. I tracked my cycle and knew my ovulation window. We are on month 4 of TTC ( no more pulling out 😂) and have not gotten a BFP. Next plan is sperm analysis and other testing if needed. I’m SO ready to be pregnant.

Answer

It works depending on the man and how good he is at doing it. There is sperm in pre-cum but such a tiny % . It will still get you knocked up though so I mean, sex is a risk haha

Answer

I’m curious as well.. it worked for my fiancé and I. We used it for a year and a half before ttc. We still have yet to get our BFP though.. makes you kind of wonder if the pull out method was working or if there is an underlying cause as to why we didn’t get pregnant on it 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

Two of my sister in law's swear by it. They each have 4 children which were planned and never got pregnant in between. Each of their kids is roughly 3years apart. 
If you do it right, it can be effective. But I think there's more to it then just pulling out in time. 
To me, that doesn't sound fun at all! 😅

Answer

My husband and I have been together 10 years and ONLY used the pull out method. We never conceived until we started trying for our baby

Answer

Worked for 3-4 years.

Answer

Me and my husband used the pull out method for about six months before we got pregnant with our son. Now we have an almost six year old and TTC #2 -on cycle 7 🥴
