Correct option is C
Sol. Abstinence, or avoiding sexual activity, is a completely valid and effective method of contraception, especially among adolescents or those avoiding any risk of pregnancy or STI. Calling it “not a method” is wrong, hence option (c) is the false statement here. Other listed methods are accurate descriptions of male contraception strategies.
Explanation of each option:
· (a) Vasectomy is effective permanent method – True. Vasectomy blocks the vas deferens, preventing sperm release, and offers long-term protection.
· (b) Condoms prevent STD – True. Male condoms are the only contraceptive method that prevents both pregnancy and most STDs, including HIV.
· (c) Abstinence is not the method of contraception – Incorrect. It is considered a natural and 100% effective method when followed consistently.
· (d) None of these – Not true, since (c) is clearly a false statement.
