Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

IUDs are 99% effective. Although coitus interruptus is considered 78% effective, it requires great control by the man and may be unsatisfying for both partners. Women who exclusively breast feed (without formula or solid food supplementation) may avoid ovulation. Another method of birth control should be used when the frequency of breastfeeding decreases. At 6 months postpartum ovulation commences in most women, even if exclusively breastfeeding. Couples must be highly motivated to use natural family planning because they must abstain from sex for as much as half of the menstrual cycle. Errors in the forbidden time carry a very high risk of pregnancy.
