Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The withdrawal technique does not decrease the likelihood of becoming pregnant for a teen because it is unreliable in application and, even without penetration, ejaculation can result in pregnancy. It is true that adolescents are more likely to become pregnant even if they correctly use available contraception methods, based on current clinical evidence, because they are more likely to have contraceptive failure in the context of decreased knowledge. It is also true that pregnancy can occur in the presence or absence of orgasm, and even if a teen is menstruating at the time of coitus.
