In humans, barring intersex conditions causing aneuploidy and other unusual states, it is the male that is heterogametic, with XY sex chromosomes..

Sterile males are deliberately produced by humans in several species for several unrelated purposes: Sterile insect technique – for insect pest control Cytoplasmic male sterility – for plant breeding
Sterility can also be caused by selective breeding, where a selected trait is closely linked to genes involved in sex determination or fertility. For example, goats breed to be polled (hornless). This results in a high number of intersex individuals among the offspring, which are typically sterile.
Women that chose a tubal sterilization may have a higher risk of serious side effects, more than a man has with a vasectomy. Pregnancies after a tubal sterilization can still occur, even many years after the procedure.
