YES, there is a possibility that a girl
becomes pregnant even if her partner
pulls his penis out of her vagina before
ejaculation. This method for contraception
is not so safe because spermatozoids are
present in the urethral liquid (liquid
that comes out of the penis before the
sperm). Another reason to not rely fully
upon this method of contraception is that
sometimes the penis may not be pulled out
on time. There are more secure methods for
contraception like using condoms, oral
contraception (hormone regulating pills)
and intra-uterine devices (IUDs). A
gynecologist will help advise you and your
sexual partner about using the right
contraceptive method for both of you.
