Solution

The correct option is D FSH, estrogen, progesterone
FSH is secreted from the anterior pituitary.

It acts on ovarian follicles and helps in the formation of Graafian follicle. The granulosa cells of the follicle produce estrogen.

After ovulation, the Graafian follicle transforms into corpus luteum. Progesterone is secreted by the corpus luteum.

Thus, the correct sequence is FSH, estrogen, progesterone.

Oxytocin hormone produced by the hypothalamus plays a vital role during childbirth.
