what is vasectomy and tubectomy in birth control (from how do organisms reproduce) (class 10)
Answers
Vasectomy- It refers to surgical method of contraception in which the vas deferens is cut and tied up by the surgeon. This prevents the sperms from reaching the ovum during copulation.
Tubectomy- It is again a surgical method of contraception in which the fallopian tube of the female is blocked. This prevents the egg from reaching the uterus. Thus, fertilisation does not take place.
Both of these processes are irreversible.
Answer:
Vasectomy is a surgical procedure for male sterilization or permanent contraception. During the procedure, the male vasa deferentia are cut and tied or sealed so as to prevent sperm from entering into the urethra and thereby prevent fertilization of a female through sexual intercourse.
Explanation:
There are several methods by which a surgeon might complete a vasectomy procedure, all of which occlude (i.e., "seal") at least one side of each vas deferens. To help reduce anxiety and increase patient comfort, men who have an aversion to needles may consider a "no-needle" application of anesthesia while the "no-scalpel" or "open-ended" techniques help to accelerate recovery times and increase the chance of healthy recovery.[citation needed]
Due to the simplicity of the surgery, a vasectomy usually takes less than thirty minutes to complete. After a short recovery at the doctor's office (usually less than an hour), the patient is sent home to rest. Because the procedure is minimally invasive, many vasectomy patients find that they can resume their typical sexual behavior within a week, and do so with little or no discomfort.
