Answer: Option A

Intrauterine devices like Copper-T are effective contraceptives for birth control. It suppresses sperm motility and the fertilizing capacity of the sperm. Medical termination of pregnancy or induced abortion is voluntary or intentional termination of pregnancy before full term of foetus. It is comparatively safe upto 12 weeks (the first trimester) of preganancy.
Contraceptive pills are taken orally and act by preventing ovulation, therefore they are not effective, if taken a week after coitus.
Lactational amenorrhea is a temporary contraceptive method that relies on exclusive breast feeding. It is mostly effective from birth up to six months afterwards.
