Detailed Solution

Coitus interruptus, also known as the ‘withdrawal method’, is a type of contraception in which the male withdraws penis from the vagina before ejaculation. It is not a reliable method of contraception, as it depends on the man’s ability to accurately predict when he is about to ejaculate and to withdraw in time. Sperm in the pre-ejaculate can also cause pregnancy. The failure of coitus interruptus as a method of contraception is around 20%.
