Solution

The correct option is A Preventing ovulation
Oral contraceptives (birth control pills) are medications that prevent pregnancy. They are one method of birth control. Oral contraceptives are hormonal preparations that may contain combinations of the hormones estrogen and progestin or progestin alone. Combinations of estrogen and progestin work by preventing ovulation (the release of eggs from the ovaries).
