Vasectomy is a contraceptive procedure for men. It is a permanent surgical method to make a man incapable to reproduction. It is not castration procedure, and does not affect the testes, and it does not affect sexual ability of the man. He continues to remains a sexually capable and active person after the procedure. It does not in any way affect his sexual function except that he would not be capable to make another female pregnant. A man who decides that he no longer need to have another child may go in for this procedure. It is a small surgical procedure and can be done in an outpatient setup with proper infection prevention taken.The doctor makes a small opening in the man’s scrotum, that holds his testicles and closes off both tubes Vas deferens that carry sperm from his testicles. This keeps the sperm out of his semen. The man can have erections and ejaculate semen, while his sperm no longer makes a woman pregnant. His ejaculate does not contain his sperms.It is a permanent procedure. It is advisable that the man should take some additional precaution while having intercourse during the first month after the procedure or say, for 20 ejaculations he should take additional measure of contraception.
Tubectomy is a permanent contraceptive method for females. It is a surgical procedure by which both the fallopian tubes are ligated so that the egg released by the ovaries does not reach the uterus. The fallopian tubes are two tubes that carry the egg released by the ovaries to the uterus.One end of the fallopian tubes open into the abdomen and the other end are connected to the uterus. Each tube is about 10cmm in length. When the ovum or egg is released from the ovary, it is picked up by Fallopian tube through which it moves into the uterus. If sperms are present in the Fallopian tubes, the ovum is fertilized and the resulting embryo is transmitted to the uterus where it is embedded to continue the process of pregnancy.
Gynaecologists, general surgeons and laparoscopic surgeons perform tubectomy.
This type of contraceptive contains chemicals that kill the sperms. Whenever the spermicide isintroducedinto vagina, it kills and immobilizes the sperms. Example of spermicide is Delfen Cream. It is a white cream with 5% nonoxynol 9 as spermicide. A plastic applicator with piston is used which is screwed to the mouth of the cream tube. The cream tube is pressed to fill up to the mark of 2.5 ml. The women lies on her back with knees pulled up, separates her labia minora by left thumb and index finger and pushes the cream filled applicator inside vagina as high up as possible. The cream is delivered by pressing on the piston. The cream is introduced 3 minutes before coitus.

Mechanism of action of Oral contraceptiveOral contraceptives containing the oestrogen and progesterone act by their action on the anterior pituitary and hypothalamus. Its action is also at the uterus and the cervix. It causes the abolition of midcycle FSH-LH surge by suppressing GNRH and FSH. These hormones are required for the development of follicles in the ovary. Thus as no follicular development takes place no ovulation occurs. At the Cervix the cervical mucus becomes less penetrable to sperm by the action of progesterone. Endometrial lining of the uterus also becomes unresponsive to lodging of the fertilized egg.All women must have preliminary medical checkups before starting on the pill.
Following delivery ovulation is delayed beyond 6 weeks, although it can happen at 4th week when the women are not breast feeding. Thus if the mother is not breastfeeding it is started at 4 weeks and if she is breastfeeding it is started after 6 months because oestrogen inhibits prolactin action on breasts causing poor milk yield.
