pull out method
me and my partner have been using the pull out method for about 2.5 years and nothing has happened is it likely that there is something wrong with me or him? he has not pulled out a couple times also and still nothing.
Yes, there is a chance! Are you three days late then? Because if you are, I HIGHLY suggest getting a pregnancy test.

Hello.
If you're trying to get pregnant, the pull-out method is a very effective way. In fact, we sexologists have a special word for people who use that method. We call them "parents."
The reason that pulling out is ineffective is that there can be millions of sperm in a man's pre-come, left over from previous ejaculations. Not only that, but it's often difficult for men to judge just when they're about to ejaculate. After all, most of the time during sex, the little head takes over the thinking from the big head, and all judgment goes out the window.
Just because you haven't become pregnant yet doesn't mean you won't one of these days. So if you want to avoid pregnancy, I suggest you learn more about effective forms of birth control and risk reduction. Check out these pages on this site for more information:

hi!!!!!!!! last month i had an unprotected sex after 3 days of my period and my boy frnd withdrew before the ejaculation and this month i had no periods still today, is there a chance of getting pregnant??? please help me!!!!!!!!
The pull-out method can be surprisingly effective (That REALLY does not mean I'm saying it's a good birth control method!), but I had sex for years with only using the pull-out method and never got pregnant. I would be more concerned with the fact that he didn't pull out a few times and you still didn't get pregnant. You may not have gotten pregnant due to the time of the month you had sex.

Millions of people are diagnosed with STDs in the U.S. each year.
STDs can't be transmitted by casual contact, like hugging or touching.
Syphilis is an STD that is transmitted by oral, genital and anal sex.
Discharge often isn't normal, and could mean an infection or an STD.
STDs aren't transmitted through clothing. Fabric is a germ barrier.
Normal vaginal discharge varies in color, smell, texture and amount.
