It's probably like COVID modeling where it assumes coitus at peak fertility every month for a year straight.
It subsequently claimed that the rhythm method cuts it down to 25% and pulling out to something like 20%.
Birth control pills were around 15% and IUDs were around 0.2%.
Come to think of it, maybe the chart was made by an IUD manufacturer.
I know pulling out isn't 100% but the idea that a couple that is consistently pulling out is more likely than not to conceive within a year is ridiculous. e: misread "to" as "by" so this is probably still way to high but it's in the ballpark of believability.
I'm obviously remembering this from memory, but IIRC, they claimed pulling out was only a few percentage points worse than male condoms with "real world use".
