Solution

The correct option is B Estradiol
The hormone that plays an important role in the control of 'menstrual cycle' is estradiol. It (also called as estrogen) controls growth of the uterine lining during the first part of the menstrual cycle. Estrogen levels drop sharply, the lining of the uterus breaks down and menstruation occurs.
