abstaining, especially from self-indulgence
The main reason I am abstinent is I don't want to become pregnant.

It's not enough to just talk about abstinence. You have to be
willing to talk to them about protection if they choose not to be
abstinent.

c. 1386, from French abstinent from Old French astenant, from Latin
abstinentem and abstinere "to withhold"
