Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Pull out method has risk of escaping few sperms before withdrawal / Precum before actual ejaculation is known to carry few sperms. So withdrawal method will not be considered to be safe.
If you take plan B within 72 hours of sex you would escape the chance of pregnancy.
Thanks.
