withdrawal method
Noun: A contraceptive technique where sexual intercourse is begun but the male partner intentionally removes his penis from the vagina before ejaculation occurs, aiming to prevent sperm from entering.
The term is used specifically in the context of family planning, sexual health, and discussions about contraceptive options. It describes a specific action during sexual activity intended to prevent pregnancy.
Examples: * The withdrawal method is also known as coitus interruptus. * Some couples rely on the withdrawal method for contraception, though it is not considered highly effective. * Doctors often advise that the withdrawal method carries a high risk of pregnancy.
- The term is often discussed in comparison to other contraceptive methods (e.g., condoms, birth control pills) in terms of efficacy and risk.
- It can be referenced in formal medical advice or informal sexual health education.
- Coitus interruptus: The formal Latin term for the withdrawal method.
- Withdrawal: Used informally to refer to the method (e.g., "They use withdrawal").
- Pulling out: A common informal and colloquial synonym.
- Coitus interruptus
- Pulling out (colloquial)
This term refers exclusively to the described birth control technique. It is not used to describe financial withdrawals from an account or the act of retreating from a situation. Its effectiveness is a frequent point of discussion, as it does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and pre-ejaculate fluid may contain sperm.
-
a method of birth control in which coitus is initiated but the penis is deliberately withdrawn before ejaculation
