Answer 1

Hint: Birth control is also known as contraception and fertility control method.
It is a method or device which is used to prevent pregnancy.
Birth control has been used since times but it is the most effective and safe method of birth control.

Complete answer:
Birth control is the use of different types of devices, drugs, agents, sexual practices, or surgical procedures so that we can prevent conception or pregnancy.
Some of the contraceptive methods are:
1. Natural methods: It works on the principle of avoiding chance of meeting ovum and sperm.
Periodic abstinence: It is one of such methods in which couples avoid from coitus from day 10 to 17 in menstrual cycle when ovulation could be expected.
Method in which male partner withdraws his penis from vagina just before ejaculation is known as withdrawal interrupt.
2. Barrier method: In this sperms and ovum are prevented from physically meeting with the help of barriers.
For example: Condoms, diaphragm, cervical caps and vaults.
3. Oral administration or pills: They are used in the form of tablets.
A small dose of progesterone and estrogen combination is another contraceptive method used by females.
4. Surgical method: It is also known as sterilisation, generally advised to male and female to prevent any more pregnancies.
Surgical intervention blocks gamete transport and prevents conception.
In male, sterilisation procedure is known as vasectomy; in this small part of vas deferens is removed or tied up on the scrotum.
In females, the sterilization process is known as tubectomy; in this a small part of the fallopian tube is removed or tied up in the abdomen or vagina.
Legal method for birth control is by abstaining from coitus from 10 to 17 of menstrual cycle.
Abortion or premature ejaculation during coitus is not a legal method of birth control.

So, the correct option is option B. by abstaining from coitus from 10 to 17 of menstrual cycle.
