i have used this method my entire marriage (18yrs) and have nev er had an oops, but he never finishes inside unless we're trying. with the shot messing your cycle up i wouldn't let him finish inside till you're cycle is regular again, just in case. good luck.

We used this method for two years with no problems and it only took us three cycles to get pg once we started TTC. Will carry on using this until we have finished having children then will do something more permanant!

oh no id never let him finish inside me wen my cycles are upside down, way to risky, once iv gotten my ov back and charts are showing regularity then i can be more confident in timings

We've started using this method this month, i'm done with hormonal birth control.

We're playing it safe and not coming inside me at all, regardless of the time of month.

Going by statistics, if used correctly, only 4 in 100 couples in a year will get pregnant, i'm pretty sure thats not much higher than those with condoms.....(though I don't know the stats).

Condoms are theoretically up to 98% effective, meaning 2 in 100 will end up pregnant from using condoms.

I've used pull out method for 2 years with one partner with no accidents and just about a year with my last partner and again, no accidents

As long as you're sure neither of you have any nasty lurking STIs then I guess the stats aren't much different from using condoms or artificial contraception

Worked for OH and I for almost 2 years. Then I got on the pill.

We've been using it for about 6 years too. You've just got to be careful around around your fertile period. I couldn't go back to hormonal birth control - it's just awful!
