Hi, Ikam, and thank you for your question?

I have one for you: how would you feel about a pregnancy? Is it something that you would really like to avoid right now, or is something that would be fine if it happened?

Your description of "the nick of time" honestly doesn't bode well for long term pregnancy prevention. And there is sperm in a man's pre-ejaculate, which may be happening before your husband pulls out.

Contraception information says that 27% of adults who use this method of birth control will fail, which means that 1 out of every 4 women using this method get pregnant in a year.

Here's a chart of contraceptive failure rates. Please look down to the line that says "Withdrawal" for the statistics on this kind of birth control. That 27% failure rate is high when compared to the numbers for oral contraceptives, for instance.

Is there a reason that the two of you don't want to use any other method of birth control?
