- A Progestogen
- B hCG
- C FSH
- D Relaxin
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) FSH
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(C) FSH,
Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) is secreted by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland that stimulates the ovarian follicle to secrete estrogens during follicular phase of menstrual cycle. Progestogen, hcG and relaxin are secreted by human placenta.
