Abstract
Sterilization (also spelled sterilisation) is a surgical technique leaving a male or femaleunable to reproduce. It is a method of birth control. For non-surgical causes of sterility,see infertility.In animals, castration (removal of the testes) and salpingo-oophorectomy (removal of theovaries and fallopian tubes), called "neutering" or “spaying” when applied to pets, areused to reduce or eliminate sexual behaviour, and to prevent conception, heat andpossible uterine diseases in females, potentially prolonging a female animal's lifespan.The impact on the long-term health of a neutered male is more negative. Due to thehormonal changes involved with both genders, this will definitely cause minor behavioralchanges in the animal. When these changes are undesired, a different method of sterilization can be used, such as vasectomy in males or tubal ligation in females..
