Solution

The correct option is B Oral contraceptive pill
Hormonal contraception includes estrogen and progesterone combination or progesterone only pills. These pills work by preventing the ovary from releasing an egg, thickening the cervical mucus and making it difficult for the sperm to reach the egg, or changing the lining of the uterus and making implantation difficult.
