what type of birth control may prevent pregnancy by manipulating the hormones and interfering with ovulation?
○ barrier method
○ intrauterine device (iud)
○ hormonal method
○ behavior method

Explanation:

• Barrier methods (like condoms) work by blocking sperm, not hormone manipulation.
• IUDs (intrauterine devices) mainly work by preventing fertilized eggs from implanting or affecting sperm movement, not by hormone manipulation/ovulation interference.
• Hormonal methods (like birth control pills, patches) use hormones to stop ovulation, thicken cervical mucus, etc., matching the description.
• Behavior methods (like abstinence, rhythm method) rely on timing or behavior, not hormone manipulation for ovulation interference.

Answer:

C. hormonal method
