Solution

The correct option is D
Tubectomy

Diaphragms, condoms and spermicidal agents are barrier methods used by females. Diaphragms are round latex caps with coil springs and are fitted deep in the vagina on the mouth of the uterus. Spermicidal agents are chemicals placed in the vagina near the cervix and will kill the sperms that are present in there. Tubectomy is a surgical method. It is a major surgical procedure that blocks the female fallopian tubes, preventing the eggs from reaching the uterus. Female condoms are available in the market and is a common barrier method.
