Sterilisation in men means preventing the flow of sperms into the seminal vesicles by cutting and ligating the vas deferens. Can there be a corresponding operation made in women? If yes, where?

Yes, there could be a corresponding operation for women. The name of the surgical procedure for females is tubectomy. In tubectomy, the abdomen is opened and the fallopian tubes (oviducts) are cut or ligated, i.e., tied with nylon thread to close the passage of the egg.
