My husband and I use Withdrawal as a BC method. We have used other methods, but we have had problems with most of them. BC pills make me very ill and increase migraines. The diaphragm presses on my urethra, and I have urinary tract problems and scar tissue, so I can't use that. I am allergic to latex, so condoms are usually out, as finding condoms in Large is nearly impossible and being older, My Man can't seem to maintain an erection while using one. I gained 45 lbs on Depo Provera, I am allergic to Noxinal 9, so foams and creams are out (plus they are not really effective on their own) and last time I checked the Sponge was not only made from latex, but it contains Noxinal 9.

So, he makes sure he has urinated since his last ejaculation, and we have found that Withdrawal works well. He has excellent control, and we're fluid bound, and even Planned Parenthood admits it's a workable form of BC if practiced properly and when the penis is withdrawn BEFORE the orgasm of the man starts.

But, if he didn't urinate since the last ejaculation, or if he came "even a little bit, or I hate to say it, but some guys do it) he poked a hole in the condom to "keep" you around. This can be done THROUGH the package, and cannot be seen pregnancy is possible. If you don't have insurance, please look up your local Planned Parenthood, they can really help out women in your position. (And, hon, you need to do what YOU need to do now, which is finish school and get away from him....)

I just read that you have had two positive pregnancy tests. If you want to talk, please PM me. It's still early.

Take care honey. My thoughts are with you. less
