Solution

The correct option is D Combination of estrogen and progesteron
  • When the production of progesterone and estrogen hormone stops in blood this leads to shed off the lying of uterine endometrium.
  • Progestrone and estradiol continue the hypertrophy of endo metrial lining in the uterus and fallopian tubes and maintain it throughout pregnancy.
  • Progesterone is also necessary for the proper implanation of the foetus in the uterine wall. It stimulates tyhe endometrial glands to secrete a nutrient fluid for the foetus, hence the term secretory phase.
  • Therefore, by supply of estrogen and progesterone the menstruation can be deferred
