Question: Copper-T is a device that prevents:
Options:
A) Implantation of blastocyst
B) Ovulation
C) Fertilisation
D) Egg maturation
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
[a] The Copper-T does not prevent ovulation (release of an egg from the ovary), egg maturation, or implantation of a blastocyst (fertilized egg) into the uterine wall. Its primary mechanism is to prevent fertilization by creating a hostile environment for sperm.
Copper ‘T’ is an intrauterine device which prevents the fertilised egg becoming implanted in the wall of the womb.
