Sterilization provides the permanent and sure shot birth control in both male and female. Vasectomy involves the removal of a short segment of each vas deferens and tying up of the remaining end slightly with the surgical thread. The operation is a minor one, usually performed under local anaesthesia, gives very little discomfort, and do not affect the sexual life. In this condition, the sperm will be produced but they do not reach the penis as the vas deferens is cut and tied.
The sperm will occur in the epididymis but did not get released along with the seminal fluid.
Intrauterine devices are plastic or metal objects placed in the uterus by a doctor. These include loop, copper-t. They prevent fertilization of the of the embryo. These perhaps act as a minor irritant and this makes the egg to move down the fallopian tube and uterus rather quickly before fertilization and implantation. There are many hormone-releasing intrauterine devices amongst which one is LNG 20.

So, the correct option is 'Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion'
