    Correct Answer: Progesterone


    Solution : The correct answer is Progesterone.

    Progesterone is the hormone used as an oral contraceptive. It is a female sex hormone that is used as a progestin to prevent conception. It acts by inhibiting egg release from the ovaries (ovulation) and altering the cervical mucus and uterine lining.
