Solution

The correct option is B Oestrogen
The FSH stimulates the follicle cells to secrete estrogen a female sex organ.
It stimulates the uterus to prepare for the implantation and nourishment of the foetus likely to arrive after ovulation. The wall of the uterus, relatively thin in the beginning of the cycle, progressively becomes thick by greater development of its smooth muscle layer, the myometrium, and proliferation of its epithelial lining, the endometrium.
So, the correct answer is 'Oestrogen'.
