Especially if you want to make doubly sure that you will not get pregnant after intercourse.
They are:
Have sex during your safe period.
This method is just an extra precaution, which you can use if you already have some kind
of protection or proper contraceptive method in place.
It means to have sex between the 8th day and 20th day of a woman's menstrual cycle, as
she would most likely not be ovulating during this period.
There is still quite a risk of unwanted pregnancy but you can try it as an extra layer of protection.
Practice start-stop method.
This method involves the man pulling out of the woman before the act of climax so that
he doesn't ejaculate inside and his sperms don't fertilize an ovum.
However, this method requires practice and is not fully safe as there is a risk that
some amount of his sperm might enter inside and increase chances of a pregnancy.
Again, it is better to do this along with having some other proven contraceptive method
in place.
