Birth control is a matter of choice. Behavioural birth control is divided into two main types:
- Withdrawal method
- Fertility awareness method
The withdrawal method refers to the man ‘withdrawing’ when he is about to ejaculate. This method is quite unreliable. 4% of accidental births occur because of failure of this method.
The fertility awareness method refers to the woman keeping a close track on her ovulation time and avoiding sexual contact during those days.
Behavioral methods of birth control are 100% free of charge-but they don’t always work. Learn the pros and cons right here.
