An interesting question! (I think??) There is nothing hormonal about abstinence other than abstinence will fuel hormonal urges that much more. In my book a barrier method would be the use of condoms, which prevent or create a barrier so the sperm does not go swimming looking for an egg! Abstinence is just abstaining from sex, there isn't any sexy phrase or psychological term for it - it is what it is!
