The correct answer is Option (3) → Vasectomy
- Vasectomy is a surgical procedure for male sterilization. It involves cutting or blocking the vas deferens to prevent sperm from being released during ejaculation. It is a form of male contraception.
- The other options are female contraceptives:
- IUD (Intrauterine Device): These are devices inserted by doctors or expert nurses in the uterus through vagina. These Intra Uterine Devices are presently available as the non-medicated IUDs (e.g., Lippes loop), copper releasing IUDs (CuT, Cu7, Multiload 375) and the hormone releasing IUDs (Progestasert, LNG-20).
- Cervical caps: A barrier method that covers the cervix to block sperm.
- Pills (Oral Contraceptives): Hormonal pills taken by women to prevent ovulation.
